[quote=Anonymous]I work for an Indian family and have spent a lot of time with the grandmothers. These are women who have paid for the educations, weddings, and houses of their Indian servants' children (the great-grandparents still live in India and have full household staff). They are generous and caring and deeply value the people who work for their parents back home. This attitude was passed down to their children who likewise go above and beyond for me. I also know Indian employers who are very much the opposite and disrespect their nanny both openly and subtly. Just like I know Americans who are globally conscious and others who are the definition of ethnocentricity. Don't make any assumptions, just get to know them.[/quote]
