[quote=Anonymous]I think this is classic case of very poor communication and planning. My parents have come twice to help me postpartum and once to babysit when I was going to school. They came a few weeks before I needed them and they were able to figure out how my home was run and what my kid/kids needed. Yes, when they came to help us and stayed with us, there was an increase in work for us too because not only with additional groceries, cooking, cleaning, laundry etc, but also their other needs. It was worth it because I had their support and I had already figured out additional help like a cleaning lady, sending clothes to a laundry service and an hourly cook who used to prep food for us. If your parents are not very organized to begin with, are set in their ways, cannot cook or clean up, have no sense of how to run a home...why do you think they can be helpful with your childcare and housecare needs?
