[quote=Anonymous]OP, are you white and American (culturally)? I am wondering if you are from a culture that is not American and if so, then this all makes so much more sense and you shouldn't be coming to DCUM for advice because this board skews very American, upper middle class (or UMC wanna be) and that is a very, very different set of cultural expectations in terms of familial relationships and the amount of help one should give and expect from family. The fact that your grandmother provided complete care for you and your 4 siblings is what has me wondering if your family is from somewhere else, because that is not a typical American experience. Now, if you are white, American and UMC, listen to the DCUM folks and get alternative paid childcare. [/quote]
