You could be spending that $1000/mo on daycare instead. (Well for one kid, expensive daycares are around $1000/mo, mid-range is around $650/mo. For 2 kids, mid-range daycare is $1300/mo and at that point you could get an au pair for $265/week, and if you have 3 kids it's cheaper to do it that way than spend $2000/mo on daycare). Of course that varies based on where you live in the USA.
That's just one of the many prices you pay when you have kids. So having a job with less expensive insurance but having the kid in daycare would put you at break-even in terms of monthly costs.
