I don't spend nearly enough. I'm pushing for private music lessons. We're already doing swim team/tumbling/drama.

I'm almost certainly a statistical outlier, since I'm debt free and we only spend about $2,000 per month, total, in expenses for two children (10/7). Maybe $2,500.

$400 a month sounds reasonable to me.
