“Sure, if you include the chores he needs to do because he can’t afford an at home babysitter.

Being in Kollel is a life of Mistapek B’muat, and an at-home babysitter is a luxury that most can’t afford”

Generalizations are a bad idea. I know many working families that can not afford an at home babysitter and I know many kollel families that do (although most people I know that utilize a babysitter do not have an at home for the simple reason that it is more cost effective to bring the child/baby to the babysitter)
