@Omdg – yeah, I could see that one. I have just made my peace with paying for a lot of help!

The thing that triggers me the most is when other people have involved extended family members. There are many reasons for this… 1) my completely uninvolved parents, 2) shitty comments from attendings I worked with during residency about “how nice” it must be to “be able” to afford an au pair (when they had their parents help), 3) whining and complaining about having no family help when your mother comes and takes care of your kids a few afternoons a week and whenever you and your husband want to go on a fancy vacation for a week. I am very happy with the life I have, but man those things really get me!
