[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP is very brave (or stupid) for posting this question on this forum. Most of you have no time for/hate your aging parents. Post after posts says 4 weeks is "a lot." It's not a lot. It's a decent amount, sure, but it's not a lot.[/quote] It is a lot. 20 days is my total vacation time for a year, as a 10+ year employee. 4 weeks visiting my parents would mean no time off to visit my in laws, no time to take my kids on a vacation anywhere other than my hometown, not even any days off to chaperone a field trip (unless I carefully scheduled the Mom visits over paid holidays). How is that not a lot?! If you want to say Americans simply don't get "a lot" of vacation time, fine, but then you can't blame individuals for not visiting their parents "a lot" when it's out of their control. [/quote]
