9:37 pm
equal, right, was all for leave pass on was known to disability in the glove. once again, rush has become a place where people with all different interests from all different backgrounds can come together for a singular purpose. and here today in cars on that purpose is to have fun. hello, it is of america donald port or far t cause on whether or not this news. i've no sign courtesy i on the costs of everything and will be back in the top of the 5 amount. the having a child is one of the most joyful moments for parents. however, the expenses that come with taking care of a child are rising. this as families are struggling with the decisions of when to have children, whether or not have more than one child,
9:38 pm
or even if they can afford to have children at all. i'm crisp and you're watching the cost of everything. where today we're delving into the various factors, contributing to the increased financial burdens on families and the rising cost of child care the, the costs of child care has risen so high in recent years that some parents can't afford to work. now this might sound a little backwards because if you don't work, how do you afford to take care of your child? well, in 2023, the average household spends more than $700.00 a month on child care, up 32 percent from 2019 child care, whether in the form of day care centers preschools are in home care is a loyal service that allows parents to work while ensuring the wellbeing and development of their children. however, the costs associated with these services have risen from magically in recent years
9:39 pm
. outpacing installation and wage growth. roughly 2 thirds of families who need child care or reading, dedicating more than 20 percent of their annual household income towards paying for it. in the u. k families could spend a whopping 75 percent of their monthly income on child care, which then discourage as women from going back to work. the landscape of child care is also changing with more families moving away from the traditional reliance on grandparents to an increasing preference for early education programs. the child care was, was primarily a family affair, often handled by grandparents, families lean on the support and experience of grandparents creating a strong intergenerational bond. but today we're witnessing a growing trend where families are choosing early education programs, such as the montessori method over traditional support systems. now one key driver of this shift is a rising desire among parents for early education opportunities for their children
9:40 pm
. the understanding of the critical development years has led to an increased emphasis on formalized early education programs. parents are now seeking these programs to provide a solid foundation for the cognitive and social development setting the stage for future academic success. the child care is the largest financial component of raising a kid with national estimates coming in at around $11752.00 per year. unfortunately, not every family can afford the higher cost associated with these child care programs. so instead of working one parent often leaves workforce in order to look after the children. the u. s. economy loses an estimated $122000000000.00 a year when parents leave work or reduce their hours to stay home with young children. however, there are many countries where child care is subsidized. in germany and austria,
9:41 pm
parents benefit from free or highly subsidized public child care, luxemburg, iceland, sweden, and norway also ranked very high on child care provisions among high income countries. meanwhile, slovakia, the us, cyprus, switzerland, and australia ranks the lowest. the lack of affordable child care is also a key barrier for parents compound e social economic inequalities within countries and a high income household. nearly half of children under 3 years old, attend early childhood education in care. and now joining us today is dr. reba perry. you fairly founder of use of the rise early education center. now dr. re about how to families budget having a child are most parents financially prepared for the extra burden? the average parent parent really is not. and the reason why i say that is because by the time you added the formula we supplied feed use of 5 formula.
9:42 pm
we also get a type is donated by a with it why pd, we also get a supplies from books to toys. so we kind of take the burden off the family as well because we know most of the families are struggling financially because in new york state it's very difficult. if your rent is $3000.00 and you only make it $3900.00, how are you able to support child care? so that's why government came up with the supplement. are there common misconceptions about the cost associated with raising children that you often encounter? gets the children are financially a lot for an average person. so imagine being a single person raising a child and not being able to come up with the financial client. so i think a lot of us have an action plan in place,
9:43 pm
but we just can't pursue it because of the high cost of living. so most people really can't keep up with the child care increase. so when they give us these letters and tell us that this year, you're going to increase 30 more dollars is not even logical. it's not even sensible to ask the family to pay more if they could barely pay what they're paying now. and the cost of living has gone up for so many of us, even the red light and gas. so basically the reason why the cost of living is going up because people have different lives, lifestyles now. but with child care, it's little different because if the cost of living is going up, that means that we have to provide the parents with good service, but we have to pay more for us to be able to stay open and how significant are education related expenses and the overall cost of raising a child, it can be very expensive because you have so many things that you have to put in
9:44 pm
place as i am the u. s. t teacher. and i know we're the inside the school system is totally different from supplies. so if you have one child, you can kind of wing it. but imagine a parent that has 3 forms, 5 children, especially in the beginning of the year when they give this list of school supplies, they expect you to give to each child. and the parent really can't afford it cuz you'll want to pain at least $200.00. and that's just a give a take. so that's another reason why i know it's very challenging for parents to be able to to afford even projects that the teachers are requiring them to get that parent might just not have the extra money to be the supplement. and i know it's very costly because my children are 27 and 18 and it was a lot of money just to raise them. so now we in 2024. and we talk about economic issues, social injustice in multiple multiple things that can hinder people in certain
9:45 pm
properties. strickland areas what other educational advantages of enrolling children a formal early education programs? well, a lot of the parents, well, i have a long waiting list for my particular program because i mean 9 acceleration teacher . so i'm not a baby. see the, i'm not just the child care provider actually teach the children. so i do a full day curriculum from a these 6 weeks in of depending on the child's ability to be able to keep up. and the structure of programs actually contribute to a child's cognitive and social development. yes. so a lot of times it still didn't come in, like i said, i have a 2 migrant children that came in, that weren't speaking english. so we did, we were able to teach the family the english as well, but my students also learned spanish. so it's a cultural thing where
9:46 pm
a lot of times we think everybody can afford to be in child care when they really can't. and that's why our government came up with the a child to stipend with able to pay for the services. what about in cultures where grand parents traditionally play a significant role in raising grandchildren? i actually had 3 of the children in my kid data be raised by the grand parent who to foster care and chip program, which can be a struggle, especially if you're on a fixed income. so that's why i get a family's toy getting on supplements to be able to afford the child care. what benefits are associated with this approach is very important that people stay connected with the immediate family instead of of foster care type of person. because a foster care person and work diligently to help support you with immediate family
9:47 pm
with no your extended family such as cousins, aunts and uncles. and they would know your family traditions more than a strange. i'm thinking dr. we by the please stick around dr. rima perry, you fairly well, stay with us right after the break. and when we come back, financial responsibilities for parents don't take a break as their children transition into adulthood. we'll have more after the break, the . the
9:48 pm
small child care costs usually stop around 3 to 5 years old. the total cost of raising a child does not stop there instead of daycare and nanny's. those costs will be replaced by extracurriculars,
9:49 pm
hobbies and education statistics show that the average middle income family with $2.00 children will spend $310000.00 to raise a child born in 2015 up to age 17 and 20. 32. a significant portion of this cost is housing. as families need to upgrade to a larger space to accommodate, to growing children, then comes food on the low budget and a family of 4 spends about $11700.00 a year on food at home. on the higher end, they spend more than $19000.00 per year on food, and that's around 25 percent of their income based on the media household income of $74000.00. and finally, there is the college education fund. the average annual cost of public colleges is around $24000.00, while private college is at $55000.00. besides, parents will also need to factor in transportation to and from school health care,
9:50 pm
insurance, clothing, toys, phone bills, extra curricular activities, sports, hobbies, family, vacations and more. the high cost of raising a child is one of the reasons american families are having fewer children. the fatality rate is currently $1.00 birds per woman, which measures a number of birth, the average woman will have during her lifetime. while the cost of having multiple children is high, the cost per child actually goes down. the more kids who have 2 kids can live in one bedroom and share items like toys or clothes compared to the family with 2 kids . couples spend 27 percent more on an only child and families with 3 or more kids spend 24 percent less on each child. south korea is one of the most expensive countries in the world to raise a child to 18 years old, followed by china. for koreans, a large sum of child care expenditure of goes towards educational expenses. beyond
9:51 pm
regular, public schooling, korean spend about 360 dollars each month per child. in 2022 on private cram schools so that they can test into good high schools. and universities to korea is a very education focused society. and for most families, extra lessons after regular school is accepted as normal families that cannot afford these extra cram classes. often times are at a disadvantage when it comes to the child's future. most of these extra lessons are focused on english as a 2nd language and math. so for this and war, let's bring in again dr. rima perry, you fairly founder of use of the rise early education center. now we switch to the financial aspect of child care. how do you charge parents knowing most of them can't take the burden of high child care costs? well, i basically have never increase my payments. ive been open for 15 years and i stick
9:52 pm
to the same amount. and this is why supplement by doing outside of work besides the child care, because i know my average family can not afford the 340 that the state regulates us to charge deck someone's whole income. so i stick to a lower base. and when i started this 15 years ago, it was to help support people in the community, but it was also to help the children be able to build this self esteem more been just and powering for the money by how their child care and extra curricular activities contribute to the financial responsibilities of parents. well, in my particular program, i bring the everything to the children or bring them out because i know most of my parents really cannot afford to go out side. they have program, but i mean, they get off of work. they tie it any way, but most of the time they just can't afford to take the child to amusement park or
9:53 pm
even to the zoo or any type of structure environment. so we basically do everything we a one stop shop, meaning we gives all the supplies, but we also take that burden off the mom. and this is why we have such a long waiting list right now. are looking to open to more sites because we realize that the parents needs a bigger than what we thought opens 15 years and i see the parents begging to get into this particular site because they know everything will be brought to the child . do extra curricular activities help the parents, since they can be more flexible with work hours or the cost benefit of extra curricular activities is just not worth it. the extra curriculum activity does help the parents because he puts them at ease, especially when i send a photos of say, look, we have a merry go around, look way after sue, or we visited in santa claus. oh, we doing some extra curricular activities in his know out of pocket expense on
9:54 pm
their behalf. and the parent is at work not worrying because some of my children stay and my kids are 10 to 12 hours. so that means the majority of the day with me . so by the time the weekend comes, the parent just overwhelmed with just everyday activities such as the laundry cooking cleaning. so that's why we do the one stop shop with a mom doesn't mom and dad or grandma doesn't have to worry about the child being too good for. how do government support programs and policies contribute to alleviating the financial burden of child rearing? so they have a child to vouchers from real estate and children services in different programs, 3 k. and what they do is they supplement and according to your income. but they also allow the children to be in child care and not have to have the financial burden of where we do our pay for the child care. or do i pay for my rent?
9:55 pm
do i pay for my lights or pay for the child in a lot of the kids have actually o closed because of called it. and that means they were limited on following out to you. so that's why we have such a long waiting list. and that said, you know what, i'm going to go out on, it's in actually opened another site so that i can be able to address this major issue and other areas where government initiatives could be enhanced to better support families. i think once a child is enrolled in child care, it shouldn't be the daycare provider telling parents to go and apply for these supplemented a child to you about kids. i think it should be automatically sent out to the parents so that the parent to know and how would they know because they do a database they know exactly how many children are born. and when they do the senses, that's the part that should allow parents to be able to address the child key
9:56 pm
issues without worrying about the child staying with grandma, instead of actually being any child care center on a loop setting. how does income disparity influence the choices and opportunities available to families in terms of the quality of life for their children? well, disparity part comes in, like i said, the migrate children that as service in my daycare is not just me servicing the child a service. the whole family because if the family is not together, it means the child will struggle. so my goal is to help assist a whole family. so no one ever lives on the property property is something that in america a bit, we all should never have to face because there's too many supplemental programs that can help and assist you. and are there initiatives and bridging the educational gap for children from lower income families? yes, they do have a lot of programs, like i told you,
9:57 pm
you p k 3 k and supplemented programs. so if you are from a low income bracket that you are able to get the child care vouchers in please, what out, where are we in? is my child going to get quality care? and i think every parent whether you're low income or wealthy, your job and your goal is to educate your children, but the safe at the same time i give, i actually am on the network with idea of advice. and i always tell parents to go by referrals if there's someone in your network and they have a childcare center. most of the children that are in my care or to with federal. farrell is a very important because it allows you not to worry because that prior period already knows the daycare providers and do your homework and research everything that looks good is not always goals. so always do your research and everything is
9:58 pm
in a google search. and you can look at reviews, and you also can research that particular daycare. thank you so much dr. way about for all your time today. now the bank has become a popular term these days. it stands for dual income. no kids for couples who choose to forego kids and the extra expenses to then enjoy their disposable income on themselves. as a result, banks are often able to afford extra trips, luxury items, and expensive cars that otherwise would be completely unattainable. almost half of unmarried americans want to get married in the future, but only 20 percent say that they want to have a child. social media has accelerated, this trend, as thousands of couples are going viral, sharing the choice to opt out the parenthood. but while they're having fun and winning today, it doesn't always end up paying off in the long run because it's important to think about later lives and who's going to look after you when you're older. i'm christy
9:59 pm
. i. thanks for watching and we'll see you right back here next time on the cost of everything. the look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given it by human beings, except we're so shorter is that conflict with the 1st law show alignment of the patient. we should be very careful about visual intelligence at the point, obviously is to great trust, rather than fit the various mean with the artificial intelligence we have summoning the theme in the robot must protect this phone. existence was alexis
10:00 pm
the, the size of this, how i'm setting images from the bodies of the tunes have been recovered from a cost by is ready. so like, while back in the us problem with one makes a shopping statement about the policy. and so the, i think we should of div cuz coke and chemical plants, it's quite dangerous to hang around here now because they say there may still be some ukrainian suits running around here somewhere on exclusive report from the idea of care. a cabinet who literally does highest to to do point is now in bush in the house of life was involved in the national public on the incessant also i.
