Children worth more than money?

Kids Cost Parents $200,000

According to a recent study by IBISWorld, a typical family spends $12,658 a year raising a child. Those who live in the west spend about 8 percent more than the average and those residing in eastern regions, shell out about 4 percent more.

Parents will spend, on average, more than $200,000 raising a child by the time their teen graduates from high school. Those couples earning more than $75,000 a year will shell out over $300,000.
