[quote=Anonymous]PP here with the SAHM SIL. Of my working-mom Indian American friends, childcare ranged from daycare (home and big centers) to nannies to grandparents, just like my other working-mom friends. Making broad, sweeping generalizations — the Indian style of child-rearing, at least from the older generation, doesn’t focus on a lot of “enrichment” for younger (under 3 or so) babies/toddlers. It’s more coddling, almost attachment style, but not necessarily from the mother — anyone who is caring and loving can do that. Therefore, it’s not seen as something that has to be done by a highly educated mom. [/quote]
