I don't know.
But I think if you are a responsible parent,you should think it over.Besides ,you should realise that what a child need is not only money or some material things....作者: cescgansu 时间: 2010-9-2 09:33
Well, I think this is really a realistic question. Though I am not the right age and time to have a baby, but I can't say I am not worrying about my future with a baby.
I remember when I was a kid, and my parents were busy doing their work to support the family, you see, there are three kids in my family, and what they needed to do was to feed us timely. They did not have to send us to school and take us back, and school was not expensive. We did not gain that much toy-playing fun, but we still got to grow up.
While now, a kid costs the whole family. Except the regular school, they have extracuricullar classes like piano, painting, dancing, ect, and which are not actually the kid's own interests, but imposed by the parents, saying they want their kid to become a capable person. Eventually, the kid got extremely tired, and so did the parents, even more tired.
Everyone says that these young little persons are bearing too much burden, but none of them would make it easier for these kids, and which make themselves even tired.作者: laura6688 时间: 2010-9-2 10:45
In the past few decades,one more kid just means one more pieces of chopsticks. At that time, parents do not earn much money.At present,normally each family has only one kid,but things are significantly different. Baby,it is a sweet and heavey burden for the whole family. Parents worry about their baby to lose at the very beginning.They do not think they are financial ready to have a baby. It is becoming one of the noticeable social problems.作者: 瞌睡虫 时间: 2010-9-2 18:49
It's really a typical social problem in city area nowadays.
Many many young couples they live in their haired houses. Everyday they have to work hard to earn their living. They just only can afford to their livings. For them, buying a house as their homes or raising a child is just a remote dream.
But on the other hand you can see, there are still young couples they have houses, cars and children. For them, one child is not enough, they want to have two more children.
So it's really a tough phenomenon to deal with.作者: dellphilips 时间: 2010-9-2 20:05
I really don't know the answer, frankly,I am one of the thousands of husbands who are struggling for money,big house,car ,etc.
If I haven't prepare enough money for my baby,I think I would chose waiting. Because raising a kid is a complicate system engineering. Once you have a child, you must prepare a lot of things,including money,education,medical treament,and so on.
