Making Happy Grandparents
04/17/2015



Before our son and daughter-in-law had their first child, I tactfully stressed the importance of raising their child without the help of day care. However, both my son and his wife were sure they both would keep their careers. 

Fast forward to the first day they had to drop their infant off at a day care, they learned first-hand what Dr. Laura has been saying for years. I am very proud of their new decision making. They sold their $20,000.00 car and replaced it with a $3,000.00 car. They sold their home and traded it for an affordable apartment. They will eliminate their $75.00 cable bill and any other unnecessary expenses. This is including their day care bill, as my daughter-in-law will soon become a stay-at-home mommy! 

They know things will be tight but they know they are doing the right thing. Thanks for your show and the advice you give. 

Signed,

A happy grandpa and grandma.
