Kindergeld in Belgium (Flanders) is about 120€. That's a little over 10% of thr minimum wage. In this Polish story it was 33%, big difference. What ratio is it where you are referring to?

For reference, full time day care in Belgium will cost you about 500€ per month if you are not poor.

It's 190€ till age 26(!) in Germany but you get other benefits (most significantly a large income tax break, and 14 month parental leave).

Childcare is about 0-400 depending on your income but you have to be outrigh wealthy to get close to the latter (we pay 128€/m with a high 5-figures €/year household income).
