[quote=Anonymous]My parents are immigrant, not south asian, but from a culture that has similar family structure in many ways. I would be very cautious of having my mother living with us full time. She can be very helpful - lots of cooking, cleaning, helping with the kids. But that help also comes with a domineering attitude, no respect of barriers, and hurt feelings when anything other than complete and constant gratitude is expressed. It's not a dealbreaker, but something to be aware of. I have a pretty good understanding of my culture, but my spouse doesn't and would have a much harder time with it.[/quote]
