[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In my (southern but pretty modern in most ways) family, we're taught to show deference to our parents. I think it's really weird that you'd give your kids priority over your own parents. My kids know that grandparents are honored for the many sacrifices they made for their families in the past and for the role they continue to play. We always try to make them comfortable and do for them. Your parents aren't emotionally blackmailing you. They're making a statement about how screwed up your values are in the best way that they can. I can easily imagine my mother doing the same and I wouldn't blame her. I would feel horribly guilty about flying first class with my parents stuck in coach. Really, what a weird thing to do. [/quote] And in my (actually modern) culture, we’re taught that resources flow downward. Parents take care of their kids.[/quote]
