My parents helped us out when our 3 children were young with housing, furniture, clothing, 2nd hand car, lifts etc. as it was difficult to make ends meet on one salary. Once we were both working we had more money, and now we are able to help our own children. We help with holidays because we love to see the grandchildren, and we buy grandkids shoes and take them out. I hope this attitude passes on to my own children too. The other nanny buys clothes and school uniform. What is money for if not to help others, family first?
