[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your parents are reasonable and not bad enough to have caused (physical/emotional) trauma, why are they not spending a eeek with your parents and a week with his parents??? Parenting takes a village. It's not solo! If they have younger cousins, perhaps they can spend a week with Aunt/Uncle to cousin bond. Sympathies to you and your family. This is a long result of people refusing to hold their governments accountable for paid parental leave and flexible schedules for everyone. The longer people refuse to stand in solidarity and demand the same benefits for all of society. The longer people in this country suffer. Actions/Votes/Racism/ ................./....//// ALL have consequences [/quote] Really not the norm to have that kind of help. Many grandparents are still working their own jobs. Or are not healthy enough for childcare, and the parents are taking care of them in addition to their children! Or they simply arent willing or interested.[/quote] Agreed. Not the norm to have that help. You you can't assume any relative (grandparents, etc.) wants to watch children. They have the right to not want to. Also a lot of grandparents are still working, or not well enough (people having kids later), etc. Unfortunately, a lot of us have to blow through our leave or get camps to address the issue.[/quote]
