阅读理解。 The cost of raising a child from birth to age 18 is about $ 160,140! That doesn't even touch collegetuition. For those with kids, this figure might lead them thinking how much they could have banked. For
others, that number might confirm the decision to remain childless.

A partner for blowing bubbles, flying kites, and building sandeastles.

hide-and-seek, and never stop believing in Santa Claus. You have an excuse to keep reading the
Adventures of Piglet and Pooh, watching cartoons , going to Disney movies, and wishing on stars.
For $160,140, you get to be a hero just for taking the training wheels off the bike, and coaching a
baseball team that never wins but always gets treated to ice cream regardless.

behind the wheel.
