[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I personally know two families where 'white' grandma does school pick-ups, homework, etc. And another family where white grandpa who does this too! My Mom is always cooking, playing with kids, running errands for me when she visits. Is that unusual?[/quote] In DC Metro? Probably. Most Asian families in the US, especially recent immigrants, live with their elderly parents, and the parents do help out *a lot* with the kids. I am Asian, and although this would be really helpful for me, I don't want to live with my parents because my mom and I would be at each other's throats. My parents do, however, live next door to my sibling, and they have helped a lot with with my nieces and nephews. It really helped my sibling out, and vice versa... I am glad to know my parents have someone very close by to help them if they need it. Yes, I do my part.. I visit and send them money. My neighbors are Chinese, been here for over 20 years. They babysit their grandchildren on the weekdays, every day. The other neighbors are white. Their grandkids only come over once in a while even though their kids live really close by. They all go to preK or daycare. Anecdotal, I know.[/quote]
