1. [+111] Supporting your kids like this is great but who knows if the kids will follow through... I'm an elementary tutor myself but most of them hate having to study...

2. [+82] Hard to tell with just the preview for this episode but it seems... foolish.. It's not like this expense is going towards actual middle or high school education.. ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ

3. [+45] It's tragic for the less fortunate parents who have kids with talent or interest but can't afford for them to pursue anything. Parents would give up a kidney if it meant they could help their kids out. This family should be grateful that they can do so much. 

4. [+38] However much it costs, all parents are probably the same in that they want to give their children everything. If you have the money, what's 100 million won or 1 million won, it doesn't matter ㅋㅋ

5. [+36] It's not bad if they make 60 million won a month

6. [+25] It's not like any of us know how much they make so how can we judge them for spending 8 million won a month on their kids? If they make over 50 million won a month, maybe 8 million won isn't even a big deal for them 🙂

7. [+24] Nothing wrong with parents funding all the support they can. I went to six after school academies for six years before I entered middle school, and I still think it was a great experience for me! It helped a lot with finding my career path later in life. If you have the money, spend it on your kids 🥰

8. [+15] I wonder just how successful those kids will be later in life after spending this mess of a money ㅡㅡ

9. [+8] It's funny because they themselves didn't do any studying as kids. They should realize that throwing money at something doesn't mean the kids are necessarily learning. 

10. [+7] Easy to add up to 8 million won if you send them to English schools, a few private tutors each;;; seems like a lot of people here don't have kids in academies

11. [+7] Oh Eun Young therapist hit the nail on the head... some parents try too hard to fulfill their own needs through their children...

12. [+5] One of the reasons why our birth rate keeps declining

13. [+3] Most of the educational stuff comes from the parents when they're this young... what kind of education are these kids even being given to require such a high expense? I hope they don't get burnt out when they start learning things that actually matter...

14. [+2] Yulhee's family does spend on the higher end but I can see expenses getting that high if you're catering everything to your children. I'd be happy if my high schooler spent 6.5 million won a month.

15. [+2] I notice it's always the people who never did anything growing up that project all their insecurities onto their children

16. [+1] The expenses are high likely because they're also including private English tutors, babysitters, international vacations to help with English immersion, etc. 

17. [+1] I doubt anyone would have a problem if chaebols were saying they spent this much ㅋㅋㅋ you don't even know how much this family makes so why butt in? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Obviously they're able to afford it so they're doing all they can for them...
