@ma_amlet @indexnforgetit My mortgage is $1528/mth(15 year). It’s 5% of my income.
But I love when people like you try to tell me how smart they are with saving money and making money.

What they're not telling you is while that may be the average cost to raise a kid... it doesn't have to be
Breaking911@Breaking911
Raising a child to age 18 now costs more than $303,000—a staggering 27.8% increase since 2023.

@ma_amlet @indexnforgetit What’s even more funny is you think I’m lying.😂
I work in medicine buddy. I’m not even a top earner.😂
English
@ma_amlet @indexnforgetit I make $350k a year. Literally just got back from England for a spring break trip and closing on 30 acres in cash to build a new home at the end of this month. My wife stays home. Net worth of $1.5million. 3 kids. Kids in the top private school in the area.
But yeah. I’m poor.😂
English
@BeamerCock @indexnforgetit I have no problem with my expenses. You seem to though. Sorry you're too poor to give your kids a decent life, but it's not my problem.
English
@ma_amlet @indexnforgetit I work in an industry that allows me to understand hospital payments, insurance, drug coverages, and patient assistance.
Most consumers are clueless in their options. And of course the financial department is going to tell you a number that works for them.
Enjoy your expenses!
English
@BeamerCock @indexnforgetit Those rental prices alone would eat up almost their entire salary lmao. I'm willing to pay higher prices for high quality care. Sorry you're too poor to do the same.
English
@ma_amlet @indexnforgetit You’re a guy who clearly has it figured out! Pay them $60k! $100k! You love the expenses! Nannies should make more than the people they serve!😂
Never use a collection of college students or kids in a gap year.
Btw…you live in Georgia and act like you live in LA😂
English
@ma_amlet @JoeLongBalls @LimeOvrPortland So I’ve enlighting you stupid cocksuckers about how much your team rapes and beats children in schools. I’m hoping that you’ll feel some shame, but I understand that you’re a democrat so you’re subhuman.
English
ohhh I get it, this is the other side of the "burnt out gifted kid" coin. okay yeah that sucks you got scolded for reading ahead one time but you're like 30 now, you can't keep hanging on to that you've had like a decade to realize that none of that mattered
memetic_sisyphus@memeticsisyphus
It’s true, every halfway intelligent right winger I know irl had a massive conflict with at least one elementary teacher over things like: reading ahead, reading too difficult books, not showing enough work, etc etc. it’s the first time we experience the uncaring tyranny of state bureaucracy and it sucks.
English
@BeamerCock @indexnforgetit Jesus Christ you’re still talking about an au pair. READ. We would be hiring a NANNY. A full time NANNY. Someone who has to pay for housing, food, gas, and every other living expense. On $26k, yeah that’s poverty wages where I live lmao. You’d barely be able to cover housing.
English
@ma_amlet @indexnforgetit Clearly you aren’t clicking.😂
How do you travel to all those places while being impoverished?
English
@BeamerCock @indexnforgetit I didn’t bitch about it 😂😂😂 I said $300k is an absolute reality for 18 years of raising a kid. I can afford it; if I couldn’t, I wouldn’t have had kids.
English
@ma_amlet @indexnforgetit No, my goal should be to not cast pearls to swine.
You overpay, bitch about it, when offered advice, complain about the advice, brag about how you like overpaying, rinse and repeat.
People prefer comforts of status quo. You are a prime example.
English
@BeamerCock @indexnforgetit I think it’s cute you think working in the industry makes you an expert on every facet of healthcare 😂 but you’re right I probably just hallucinated when I discussed the payment plans and patient assistance with the financial department for my last hospital stay 😂😂
English
@ma_amlet @indexnforgetit This is still false.
I work in this industry. Ever heard of a payment plan? Or patient assistance(it’s pretty broad).
However, you have the desire to overpay for stuff and brag about being dumb, so enjoy those costs too😂
English
@BeamerCock @indexnforgetit Yeah, it’s poverty wages to hire a full time nanny for $26k. What’s not clicking, dumbass?
English
@ma_amlet @indexnforgetit Yeah, but your original, and uneducated, retort was virtue signaling around “poverty wages”😂😂😂.

@TraceJoyWar @JoeLongBalls @LimeOvrPortland This conversation is about being scolded for things like reading ahead, not sexual abuse lmao
English
@ma_amlet @JoeLongBalls @LimeOvrPortland “approximately 10% of K-12 students experience some form of sexual misconduct—ranging from verbal to physical—by a school employee during their K-12 career. More recent studies, such as one published in 2023, have cited figures around 11.7% for educator-perpetrated misconduct.”
English
English
@JoeLongBalls @LimeOvrPortland You would never talk like this to a violent criminal mistreated by a cop. But kids abused by Democrat women? That’s a different story, the little bastards had it coming. Besides nothing bad happened to you, so nothing bad happened to anyone.
English
@BLeBlan68656830 @ChrisCuilla @longstoryfarms It’s not relinquishing anything. The two aren’t mutually exclusive lol.
English
@ma_amlet @ChrisCuilla @longstoryfarms Yeah, that is not a doctor or nurse's job with my underage child. Sorry, I don't relinquish my parental rights or responsibilities to just anyone who thinks they know what is best for my kid. It is my sacred responsibility to take care of them. No one else's.
English
It would be fine if they only asked about abuse. But they don't. They ask about guns and other things that are intrusive and for which kids don't always have context. Like most things, they put in a good and reasonable check and then keep adding things that subsume the good thing.
Julie@JulieLovesFluff
I took my 11 year old to her checkup this morning and the nurse asked me to step out of the room for a moment. I politely declined and she said, "It's just for a moment." And I told her, "No thank you, given all the stories about children being abused my husband and I decided to never leave our children alone with anyone, even medical providers. Anything you need to do or say you can do with me in the room." She looked all miffed and just left, no idea what her plan was but she didn't feel the need to continue it with me present and that makes me even more suspicious?? When she left my daughter thanked me for not leaving, she's already shy about the doctor, her eyes got so wide when the lady asked me to leave.
English
@BLeBlan68656830 @ChrisCuilla @longstoryfarms Good for you. I don’t know what you think that changes lol
English
@ma_amlet @ChrisCuilla @longstoryfarms I'm no stranger to those lived experiences, which is why we were so forthright and vigilant with our kids. And we succeeded, so...
English
@JackTipGuin @bearcatmark1 Apparently that his father either can’t read a floor plan or just lies about stupid shit for no reason
English
@bearcatmark1 The Brooklyn Public Library has a woman's restroom, an "all gender" restroom, and no men's room. What message is my son supposed to understand from that?
English
People are so fragile these days. My kids love the library. The idea that people setting up libraries "hate them" is such woe is me, victim nonsense.
We're very lucky in Ohio. Great library system to expose children to.
(As a book nerd, I have plenty in my house too)
Katie Roome@RedHedgedragon
Enemy institutions. If my kids want a book, they can run downstairs to our library, where everything has been carefully curated by someone who doesn’t hate them.
English
@SeanDooley26319 @longstoryfarms Cool, then don’t tell them? Lol idk what you want me to say. I don’t care if my pediatrician knows we own guns.
English
@ma_amlet @longstoryfarms It’s none of their fucking business.
English
@SeanDooley26319 @longstoryfarms Of course not because I’m not a fucking psycho lol I have no problem discussing it with my pediatrician. I live in the south. They’re well aware most patients have guns and just want to reinforce the importance of using gun safes.
English
@ma_amlet @longstoryfarms Hopefully you told them it’s none of their fucking business.
English
@BeamerCock @indexnforgetit So if your goal here is to convince me it’s fine to skip health insurance, you’re wasting your time lol
English
@ma_amlet @indexnforgetit I work in healthcare.
You are uneducated if you don’t know how to get free or reduced cost meds.
English
@BeamerCock @indexnforgetit I don’t have room to board someone in my house, dipshit, so I’d be using a nanny, not an au pair. And I will, thank you!!!
English
@ma_amlet @indexnforgetit 😂
You don’t know how Au Pairing works. Congrats.
Enjoy all the overpriced garbage you are bragging about paying for😂
