Same culture happens here in Nigeria. Last year, before I lost my grandma, she moved in with her son.
The whole care was on his wife. So, when the task of taking care of her became to cumbersome, she had to higher a personal maid that comes very early in the morning to take care of her and she lives in the evening.
That gave her a little breather for a while to go to work and also take care of her kids. But it wasn’t easy for the maids because so far, they had like 5 different maids because all of them kept resigning.
The longest help that stayed were the very matured women but for the young ladies after working few months, they will run.
So, i do understand what you’re going through. I pray God gives u more wisdom on how to go about it.
Ah, your grandma might have had her own share of struggles as a daughter-in-law too! This really is a cycle, isn’t it? It’s like a generational relay race—each generation passes the baton of challenges to the next. Someone needs to be bold enough to break it, though!
Thank you for your kind words :))
