[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This reminds me of when I got no help from my parents after my first was born and my DH and I struggled so much. Then when DC started preschool and we went from paying $30k a year to $22k for childcare, my mom acted all shocked and disappointed that we had decided not to have more. Having kids in this country is too hard, expensive, and dangerous. The younger generations have realized this and are opting out. I don't blame them.[/quote]What kind of help did you expect from your parents?[/quote]
I would love it if somebody got on a plane whenever there is a hospitalization. Over the years we've had vasoepididyomotomy, 3 babies (2 Csecs), 1 laparoscopic Csec isthmocele revision, an emergency gallbladder due to pancreatitis and toddler w/ bronchiolitid has resulted in ZERO parental help. [/quote] Did you move away from them? Or did you stay to be near them but then they moved away?[/quote]

I don’t think it matters. If there’s a surgery, I’d be willing to get on a plane.[/quote]
