[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If my parents (or inlaws) paid for school for me (or my spouse) and provided reliable every day child care I would feel like a D-bag if they had to rent a car to come provide free child care for my kids. 10k is a lot out of the blue, but it is a pittance compared to day care or a nanny for 3 kids, which is over 30k/year at the low end. If the others don't have the cash, maybe you do the down payment and they handle the monthly payments. I'd they can't swing that, maybe the grandparents have to stop driving. I can find 200/month for a car a lot easier than 3000/month for new child care. [/quote] Yup, that's how I feel, too. If the freeloaders can't hack helping out with transport costs to get their FREE childcare to work, maybe it's time to downsize and live within their means. If I were the grandparents, I think I would say I can no longer do the care and have to look after my own interests with a paid position. [/quote]
