How much does it cost to raise a child until the age of 18 in Japan?
According to a new study, it costs an average of 21.7 million yen to raise a child from age 0 to 18 in Japan.
This is a little more than in 2009
The reason is that the cost of living has become more expensive.
This survey was conducted by 4,166 mothers with children aged 0 to 18 years old.
Also, if you include not only the money for education but also savings and insurance, the total will be about 25.7 million yen.
The older the child, the more money they need
Especially for high school students, it costs about 1.81 million yen to 2.31 million yen per year.
Experts say this is a huge burden, especially for families with little money.
The amount of money you spend on living doesn't change much whether your family's income is high or low.
That's why the household budget becomes difficult.
Meanwhile, money spent on medical and child care is less than before due to government support
However, as the prices of goods are rising, it costs more money to live, and the burden on families is still heavy.
