Hah! Good point, I didn't think about that.
Although IMHO daycare has plenty of benefits, and I actually do know of people who send their kids to 1/2 day daycare just for the educational benefits and socialization, so that is still 1k a month or so.
I've also noticed that the stay at home parents tend to enroll their kids in more activities, the cost of which quickly adds up.
Being with a toddler 24/7 is a ton of mental work, especially in modern western societies where we don't have extended support networks of family and friends.
