[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b][quote=Anonymous]No one is entitled to free childcare. Repeat after me. No one is entitled to free childcare. [/b] If you happen to get help from the in-laws/your parents, great. But you shouldn't expect it. Fairness is not a consideration here. [/quote] Well in my culture grandparents provide each childcare as much as they are able to. If they are old and don’t have much stamina left, it will be an hour or two while parents go out to dinner. If they are fit and healthy it’ll be for a weekend getaway. We are ‘entitled’ to what they can provide.[/quote] Only if they are entitled to live with you rent free when they are old and sick. A friend’s parents come from Asia during the school year. First the grandmother. Then the grandfather. As a result, the grandparents can’t even enjoy their retirement together. But she feels like they’d be better off staying in their home country once they are too infirm to make the trip. [/quote]
