另外说一下在悉尼学前的托儿费(Child Care)也很贵,报纸也经常报道有些家庭每年自己要拿出来1-2万(一个孩子)付托儿费。
我在新闻里看到有位洋人妈妈抱怨说,每年15000刀的托儿费彻底改变了她想要更多孩子的想法。(It's definitely a factor in us deciding to only have one child),她说:"We know the kind of upbringing that we want to give her, we know what the expenses are and we don't feel we can provide the kind of upbringing we want with more than one child."
你呢?
