[quote=Anonymous]DH, DS (2 yo), and I have a VERY different lifestyle than either set of grandparents: we live in a small 2 bed condo in the city, we both work, and DS goes to an in-home daycare. I get comments from my mom (SAHM) about how hard it must be. MIL worked through her kids' school years, so she gets it. HOWEVER, my mom and dad just "nannied" while our daycare was closed last week, and at the end of the week my mom explicitly said to me and my husband that "we're doing a great job" and "my grandson is so smart, you must be doing something right." This made me feel SO SO SO good, especially becuase most of my conversations with my mom are about how we live too far away, we don't have enough space in our house, and how it must be so hard to be working parents in a city where we have no relatives. (We don't feel like it's so hard except for the regular travel to visit grandparents :shock: ) [/quote]
