There's no way that a 6 and 8 year old cost them more than 1100$ extra a month. Literally how they pay rent.
For a child under 6 the child benefits you get mostly don't even cover costs for the kindergarten. I have three kids. One over 6, two under 6. A month of kindergarten costs around $500 a month in my area (and in cities like Toronto you pay like $1200 a month) and I don't get the full amount of child benefits, because I make way more than minimum wage. I get around $250 per month for the under 6 year olds and about $150 for the older one.
The maximum amount is about $550 for every child under 6 and $450 for every child over 6. But you would only get this amount if you're at poverty level.
