[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes but only if there was a maid and/or cook. Doing that stuff on my own for my child and myself in a foreign country would not be as worth it without American conveniences I’m familiar with. If someone else is shopping and cooking then I’d be packing my bags.[/quote]

I don't get how OP's family is upper middle class. I thought India was the same as Latin America. Everyone who is upper middle class has a maid.[/quote]

Lots of families do. And others don't. Or don't have what they consider full time help but still outsource a lot of things to a bunch of different people who come in for specific tasks. So it's not monolithic. OP could easily have help if she wanted, it's up to her.

As for paying indenture level wages, well, if the choice is between low wages or being unemployed.... which would you rather have? Taking a self-imposed higher road as an expat with misplaced morality means, in reality, denying jobs to people who really need the money.
