Pretty sure most people aren't spending $3,000/month on private school. My kid goes to public Kindergarten which is free.

Even in Toronto, which has some of the highest daycare costs in Canada, it was only $1,500/month. Aftercare at the school is $800/month. I'm very fortunate to make a good living so I can afford such things but even I balk at the idea of taking a daily Uber to drop my kid off.

You should really read your post from the perspective of the working poor and think about what you're saying from a position of privilege.

I am talking about SF here which doesn't have a great public school system. Also, I was replying to a comment where someone is making a snarky remark about what one should or should not do with their money - and was attempting to provide context.

And this is hacker news. I am reasonably sure that we aren't representing working poor here but mostly well paid and skilled professionals.
