The Hard Shoulder Highlights

Is the cost of raising children putting future parents off?

A new survey by Laya Health has found a stark increase in the cost of raising a child, with the average cost per child at over €169,000, up 60% in a decade. But, is it actually putting people off having kids, or do we simply deal with the costs as they arise? Joining Kieran to discuss is Conor Pope, Consumer Affairs Correspondent, Wendy Grace, Columnist and Journalist and later Sinead Ryan, Consumer Journalist and Presenter of The Home Show on Newstalk and Financial Expert Karl Deeter.
