[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I have observed that during the pandemic, the working women with challenging careers who did not go to pieces when school and work became remote, were the ones who were living in huge mansions in multi-generational families. [/quote] Admittedly my family probably has some disfunction, but I have found that even with a "Mansion" having extra generations or adult kids with us makes my life exponentially harder as a working mom with school age kids at home. Everyone expects me to take care of them. It's a ton of extra cleaning, plus extra cooking and extra noise and in no way is my life easier when our house is a landing pad for family. I plan to downsize as soon as our youngest leaves for or graduates from college. We'll still have a guest room for holiday visits, but I'm tired of taking care of other people. I want a lock and leave condo in the City. [/quote] I was specifically thinking of Indian-American families that I know. The house was not a "landing pad" for family. It was a joint home for three generations and earning members were contributing and they were also outsourcing and managing very well It seems what you have is a big house and visitors who are family members. That is a different dynamics. It is not a joint (multi-gen) family. [/quote]
