[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We do and it's great. I used to take it for granted until I started reading on here about people struggling with raising their kids because they don't have any local family. Both sets of parents are in town and they help us quite a bit. I'm close with my parents and I feel able to go to them for help whenever I need a babysitter in a pinch (sick day, snow day, appointment, etc.). They often take my kids to their activities. My in laws pick up my kids and feed them dinner once a week. They also fill in for my husband whenever he is out of town (H and I split drop off and pick up - when he's OOT, my in laws do the pick ups). It would be really hard not to have this level of support and a safety net to land.[/quote] Yeah, you’re very fortunate. [/quote]
