Grandmother charges daughter to take care of her grandson, sparks controversy in New Zealand

A 29-year-old woman asked her mother to take care of her one-year-old son for 7 to 8 hours a day, two or three times a week. And this happens in all parts of the world and is the most normal thing, but the controversy arose because the grandmother charged her daughter.

A full debate started on the Reddit online forum, as reported by The New Zealand Herald. “I love my grandson,” said the woman, explaining that “I am not a nursery.”

The grandmother asked her daughter to pay her 12 dollars an hour (almost 9 thousand Chilean pesos) to do it. “She understood my need for payment, but then she put me down by requesting $ 10 an hour because she claims that she cannot pay it even with her $ 22 an hour job,” said the woman.

“I am not a nursery, I have my own life, I work for myself and I think she should understand that I would be giving up my time when I work from homeAnd if I am going to give up that time, then I need money to replace the time that I am giving up my job ”, explained the grandmother.
