A Brookings Institution estimate found that a married, middle-income couple with two children would spend $310,605—or an average of $18,271 a year—to raise their younger child born in 2015 through age 17. The multiyear total is up $26,011, or more than 9%, from a calculation based on the inflation rate over two years ago, before rapid price increases hit the economy, Brookings said. #parenting #childcare #money #raisingkids #finance #personalfinance #wsj #wallstreetjournal #thewallstreetjournal | *according to a Brookings Institution estimate
