[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting. My in laws are takers and only want the great moments with the grand children. No help whatsoever. My own parents preached family only as long as it served their needs. My siblings all went their own ways. I think there is a huge lack of sacrifice that can bring an abundance of joy. As a parent I sacrifice and my kids have become my biggest joy. That said, I would have given anything for my grand parents who grew up in the Great Depression. They were just different people I guess. All for one, one for all type. [/quote] Yes, I think part of the problem is parents and siblings here don't feel any duty on their ends. So if I were to work with your cultural framework, it would be all doing and giving and paying on my end and just taking no receiving. The beauty I'm guessing of your culture is the reciprocation in one form or another, I'm guessing you all generally help each other and work together. It sounds wonderful.[/quote]
