I really don't want my mum to look after my kids full time after she's worked so much. She should have the freedom to go visit my bro and hang out with her friends, travel etc... hee but if she really wants, I don't mind either ... :) But you're right, great idea abt teaching your kids to learn to look after their own children. ya…. i totally agree with you… I really don’t want my mum to look after my kids full time after she’s worked so much.

Sadly they will grow up and carry this with them into their own marriage. It is no wonder that we have such high divorce rates here. I always feel that if I can't take care of my own kids, then I would not have any. While many may argue that someone has to go out and earn the bread, there is always another arguement that you live within your means and be thankful with what we have. God will never let us go hungry, we just need to be content. I tell my girls that they will have to learn to look after their children when they have their own. As 'future' grandparents, KC & I believe that there should be no easy way out. Just as we had raised them ourselves the hard way, they too must learn how to do that and shoulder the responsibility. Of course, that does not mean that we will not love their children and will be available if help is needed. I think to leave the children with the grandparents when they should be enjoying their retirement should not be the norm. After all they have worked hard all their lives and should enjoy some peaceful days when the children have all grown up!! Now we know why we have so many dysfunctional youths!!
