      I paid less 800€ a month for a nanny up to my children entering school, 100€ a month of food for three of them and 20€ for clothes. There’s no health insurance as it’s provided by our country and extra is paid by employer, no dental costs and who the fuck cares about piano? The most expensive thing I had to pay for them was to have a single room at the hospital when I gave birth and that was 1.200€ for the whole stay including medical acts. And even if my kids decided to play piano, the conservatory is owned by the city and costs a mere 100€ a quarter? The most expensive activity my children do is ride horses and that’s 75€ a month down the street.
