£180,000 would buy a nice house, or several holidays... I'll never understand why we breed :D

Aaah but if i didn't have my son i'd probably spend all my money on bacardi breezers and laptops..... oh wait i do that anyway..:D

Oops wrong thread:rofl:

It's all worth it though :D And most people don't spend as much as people think when they start up because people seem to have this amazing urge to buy things for the baby everytime they pass a shop:LOL:

Awwwww, it must be so nice to have someone to buy things for and watch them grow up.
I think it must be 100% worth having children.

It all depends really - some people who have children depend on the state to afford their children, so it's not actually coming out of their pocket anyway, but the taxpayers.

Hmm, cunning plan, I wonder if my gf would be up for that to stop my sister breeding? :D
