As I have seen they come here during their daughter's<br />delivery or d-i-l's delivery.May be not everyone, but most of them is for that reason.Parents also I guess are really concerned about their daughter or d-i-l, &amp; I agree that its very very difficult if your parents are not with you when you give birth to a baby.<br /><br />They would have married for 5 to 6 yrs &amp; settled in US,but still they do not want to call them to show the places here.<br />Only when the time comes to look after their kids,they want to call them.I really pity the grand parents<br />who just come here to take care of grand children.In retired age they have to be doing day care ,as the day care<br />centres are expensive also,they would spend one month's fee for their parents flight charge :)<br /><br />I feel grand parents would definitely not have much patience &amp; energy to run behind <span style="font-size:+0;"><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"><span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)">kids</span></span>.</span></span></span></span></span><span style="font-size:+0;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;color:#0000ff;"> </span></span>In our apartment I have<br />seen <span style="font-size:+0;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;color:#0000ff;"><span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)">a</span> </span></span>few grandparents taking their grand children for walk,cycling, to play in the park -its really a difficult task for them <div><br />to control them.From early morning till evening they have to keep them engaged,feed them breakfast,lunch,put them to<br />sleep................when do they get time to relax in their retired life :(<br /><br /></div>Its such a nice feeling being<span style="font-size:+0;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;color:#0000ff;"> <span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"><span style="font-size:100%;">a </span></span></span></span>mother &amp; enjoy the motherhood,but so many of them are not feeling that its imp. to be<br />with the kids,i think once they become grandparents they might realise it :)<br /><br />Grandmothers will be bit busy with the household work,looking after babies,watching some fav. serials( if they get time!) &amp; also educate the kid !<br />Grandfathers will feel so lonely being with everyone..........they will get depressed &amp; eagerly waiting to get back to India.<br /><br />But still.......... <i style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; COLOR: rgb(204,102,0)">grandparents are someone with silver in their hair and gold in their heart :)</i><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1922351131602233857-2283275057683824505?l=kshamayadharitri.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>sandhyabhargavahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18369345426642200953noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1922351131602233857.post-24420771488473396542009-04-29T20:16:00.000-07:002009-04-29T20:20:35.378-07:00I have been living with my family (bhargav, spruhaa - my daughter and sudhanva - my little prince) in Dallas, Texas for around 3 yrs now.<br /><br />Have been toying with this idea to open a blog and start writing about a lot of things that keep coming to my mind so very often ..... but, with the little time that I get outside of household chores everyday .... it has been delayed for so long ....<br /><br />Finally today (4/29/09) I have been able to sit for a while to initiate this ....<br />I look at this blog as a medium to share all that I keep thinking about motherhood, my family, life in the states, my friends, people that I am close to ........ receipes ...... hmmmm..... travel here .... and many more things .....<br /><br />Am sure I will learn as I write ..... keep telling me what you think about this blog and my penning down my thoughts ....<br /><br />Yours,<br />Sandhya ...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1922351131602233857-2442077148847339654?l=kshamayadharitri.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>sandhyabhargavahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18369345426642200953noreply@blogger.com3
