The Real Cost of Raising a Child in Belarus: A Father's Perspective

The cost of raising a child in Belarus is a significant concern for many families. A recent video by a Belarusian father, kirill_akylenko, sheds light on this topic. He estimates that the minimum daily cost of feeding an infant is around 15 rubles (approximately $6 USD at the current exchange rate), based on the price of baby food and formula. This translates to roughly 600 rubles per month, not including diapers or other necessities. "A pack of formula lasts about three days," says kirill_akylenko, "so that's 10 rubles a day." He further highlights that additional costs, such as diapers, add another 20 rubles daily, bringing the total to around 30 rubles per day. The video provides a relatable perspective on the financial challenges of parenthood in Belarus, offering a valuable insight into the cost of living in the country. This highlights the importance of budgeting and financial planning for families in Belarus.
