..the first year of childcare services for our daughter from ages 3 months to 12 months, then it dropped a bit last year because our daughter is more independent and less fragile and will continue to drop little by little until she turns 4 and is ready for school:

Sydney Leroux says she paid more for child care than she made in salary from Pride

Leroux, a member of the U.S. women’s national team, said she spent more money on child care last year than she brought in playing for the NWSL’s Orlando Pride, per Forbes’ Michael LoRé.

Leroux: Can’t survive on NWSL salary


Leroux helped the USWNT win gold at the 2012 London Olympics and win the first of its back-to-back FIFA Women’s World Cup titles in 2015. She has 35 goals in 77 caps but hasn’t been with the team since 2017. She and her husband, MLS Orlando City forward Dom Dwyer, welcomed son Cassius in 2016 and daughter, Roux, last June.

I think out of the complaints, the U.S. women's soccer has the most valid point about getting pay more because they actually brings in higher viewership numbers than the U.S. men's soccer team on several occasions...

It’s a tall battle for these women to fight for what they deserves. They enchanted the fans and instill hopes and dreams for all the young kids across the world.

We need a co-ed World Cup but that’ll be the day.
