How much does it cost to raise a kid...

RUNNING TOTAL SINCE SEPTEMBER....$2,353.40

So after a recent child support modification and what the state of Indiana suggest is fair I have decided to keep a running tab on my children and how much I spend on them. For those of you who do not have kids yet and wish too someday I suggest that you look away. You will never have enough money. In the real world kids are not cheap and at the same time are priceless!
