GRANDPARENTS LOOKING AFTER GRANDCHILDREN. SHOULD THEY BE PAID?


8 comentarios:

  1. To begin with, I think taking care of children should be paid as long as they're not the childminder's relatives. If so, grandparents shouldn't see it as a job, but as a way of helping out their own sons, especially if they're still of working age. In addition, it's said that grandparents really enjoy spending time with their grandchildren, so anyone can think that being paid for this is even a bit immoral.

  2. Some grandparents are like parents. Significant figures on the family. In some cases grandparents works like carers. Now it is said that Grandparents should be paid for looking after grandchildren. This is really interesting. In my view grandparents do this trying to help their sons in order to work and win the salary. I’m sure that grandparents are very happy to spending time with their grandchildren.

  3. Always it has happened that the grandparents turn into our second parents, since they take care of us as children. Nowadays has been commented that these grandparents who have played the role of "parents" would have to be full or to receive something in exchange.
    In my opinion, I do not believe that any grandfather wants to charge for taking care of his grandsons, everything opposite they would give what was for being his side.

  5. I don't think grandparents should be paid for taking care of their grandchildren. The way I see it, grandparents love being with them, they enjoy taking part in their education, and they don't feel they are working. What's more, I'm sure that most grandparents wouldn't accept money for doing this. The real reward they get is that their children are like "in love" with them, and they are always happy to see them. I believe that a smile of your grandchildren is the best prize you can get, and it's something that cannot be compared to a financial remuneration.

  6. A lot of families have diverse problems like economical , but in many times this families find themselves in a complicated situation to continue their relationship and they can't face the education of their childrens. In these case they ask grandparents to help with their childrens because is the easier way. I think that this aid is normal and grandparents are glad to looking after their grandchildren.

  7. In my opinion, I'm sure that most grandparents around the world wouldn't accept money for looking after to their own grandchildren, it would be more an interested action than other thing, and it would be like they're disrespecting their own family taking money from them, so I think they won't accept it, they're honest in general, and if they have to take care of their grandchildren, is because parents need their help and because they want it to do, because they love them and they enjoy passing a few of their time with their grandchildren, who are like sons for them. It would be an irresponsibility that they only pass their time with grandchildren only for money.

  8. It's suppossed that your relatives are the ones who help you when you need it and they do it without receiving nothing at all, for this reason grandparents shouldn't be paid for taking care of their grandchildren. Moreover, if someone ask their parents to take care of his or her child is because they are unable to pay a babysitter. Besides, it's immoral to earn money for spending time with your family.
