      and there are other expenses. Child care (if both parents are working), food (more ex if both parents are working and no time to cook 3 dishes and 1 soup)

      If both parents are working then the INCOME will be greater too, so can't compare with families like ours where only 1 parent is working.

      Yup, income greater, but there are other trade offs like time spent with the children, housework, additional stress from work.

      Therefore, it's really the family's choices and expectations.
