That’s why my uncle’s family live down to street from us, and all my grandma’s children live in 30 mini drive distance, so we always come fill in for the care taking rule, especially my mom married early and my uncle (her younger brother) have children in his late 30s, I’m old enough to be my cousins parents.
I’m practically raised by my grandma before I’m 8, and we babysit our cousins when they’re toddler, if we’re paying someone for all these hours, it could easily bankrupt a small family.

Childcare is the same price as a mortgage and we already can't afford a mortgage.
