Alcohols Effect on Unborn Babies

Most people know that drinking alcohol while pregnant is extremely harmful to the baby. However, do you know exactly what alcohol can do to your child? Well truth is, many people don't and even though most women try to avoid alcohol when they become pregnant, some will consume alcohol before they are aware they have become pregnant.

Alcohol consumption during pregnancy is the leading cause of preventable birth defects and developmental difficulties in children. Some growth deficits include: mental retardation, heart, lung, and kidney defects, specific facial characteristics, hyperactivity and behavior problems, attention and memory problems, and learning disabilities.

The most horrific part about all the defects is, if they are caused by alcohol, they can be totally avoided. Many people need to really be aware of what they could possibly be doing. Now I'm not saying don't ever drink alcohol, but if you are trying to become pregnant, might have accidentally become pregnant, or are in the prime child bearing years pay attention.

For anyone that doesn't believe that alcohol causes horrible birth defects, go read a book. Seriously, you might learn something. Alcohol isn't a horrible thing, but if used without any sort of thought horrible things may happen.

The Cost of Raising a Child

Almost every American woman's dream is to one day settle down with the perfect husband and raise a family together. The idea seems simple enough (love + family = happiness) however most of us don't take the costs of raising a family into enough consideration. Some families live by common phrases like "We'll make it work" “our love has no price tag" or "we'll take it as it comes" - but why not map out a mental budget plan before having children?

A recent estimation by the Agricultural Department of the US has found that it will cost a middle-income family over $290,000 to raise and accommodate one child until they are 18. This estimate takes into account food, shelter, and basic needs like clothing and furniture. That figure does not include things like the costs of toys and games, health care, piano lessons or soccer enrolment. Most importantly, the figure does not include the costs of post secondary education.

The average annual amount of money spent on one child is between $11,000 and $13,000, for middle-income, two parent families. Families with lower incomes had spent less on their children, and those with high incomes had spent more on their children. The lowest costs in raising children are in rural parts of America, and in Southern Cities. The expenses of children are higher in North East cities.

The more children a family has, the higher the price tag.
