Being a grandma at the age of 40 is no longer a 'blessing', and now most young grandmas face these four troubles!
In today's life, many women have successfully promoted to be the grandma or grandma of their children in their early 40s. The peers of these young grandmas are still mothers educating their children, and they are already helping their daughters-in-law or daughters to take care of their grandchildren. This sounds like a generation difference, but it is very real and common, so Let's take a look together!
In fact, for 40-year-old grandmas, most of them face these troubles, which is very real.
1. The child's mother or child's grandma, silly and unclear
Now we often see grandma of young children in our life, and sometimes it is not even clear whether it is the grandma of the child or the mother of the child. Because of the liberalization of the second-child policy, many women decide to have a second child at the age of 30 or even 40, thinking that the two children in the family will take care of each other.
And some elders' own children got married very early and gave birth to a fat boy early. Therefore, people nowadays are generally embarrassed when encountering such a situation. They always ask around carefully, asking the people around them whether the person holding the child is the child’s mother or the child’s grandma, so as not to make a mistake. something embarrassing.
2. Grandma hasn't retired yet, should I resign early and go home to help with the baby?
For young grandmas in their 40s, most of them still have their own jobs and careers. If they have grandsons or granddaughters at this time, they will be in a dilemma.
Because the parents of the children must go to work to earn money, and they don’t have much time to discipline the children, and they don’t want to find a nanny to take care of the children. The grandmas are thinking that they have a job, and they are doing a good job thinking about whether they should quit their jobs to help their daughter-in-law or their daughters take care of the children. After all, resigning at this time is equivalent to retirement!
3. The seniority in the family is messed up
If grandma is very young in life, the family's seniority may be messed up. For example, a young grandma has a grandson in her 40s, and her brothers and sisters are a few years younger than her, and the children are not yet married and have children. It is very likely that they will have a second child at this time. The child called the adult is grandma, and the other child called the adult is aunt...
But obviously everyone looks like children of the same age, and the two children are also very confused, thinking why should I call him uncle instead of brother and brother? Obviously they are all children... so curious, this situation actually sounds very embarrassing.
4. The 40-year-old grandma is old and young, so tired that she doubts life
Forty-year-old grandmas are very common in life now, and I found that 40-year-old grandmas are actually very tired in daily life, because they not only have older people to take care of, but also newborn babies to take care of It is very hard.
Not only do you have to worry about eating, drinking and sleeping health problems for the elderly every day, but you also have to worry about what the baby needs to eat every day and whether the nutritional supplements are enough... Although it sounds wonderful to have a big family with four generations living under one roof, in fact, doing so Grandma's is even more tiring than the parents of children, and the pressure is huge!
So what do you think about the situation of young grandmas? The young grandma needs to decide whether to resign to take care of her grandson according to the situation of her family, because after all, it is not an easy task. It is also very hard to take care of the old and the young, but no matter which choice you make, put your mind at ease Still the most important!
