Raising a child in the US can be very tough, especially for both Indian parents working full-time.
In the US, both parents often have to wake up early, cook, take the kids to school, work all day, do grocery shopping, chores, and cleaning, which can feel exhausting.
However, in India, things are different. There, a maid cleans the house, a driver takes you places, grocery shopping is quick, someone else cooks, and grandparents often help with childcare. It’s more of a community effort.
This comparison mainly applies to households in India earning around Rs ~35L+.
Many Indian parents who returned to India from the U.S. are content and happy because this extra support significantly impacts their lives. Most ensure their child obtains U.S. citizenship before permanently moving to India.
There are positives about the U.S. too, like better infrastructure, higher wealth, career opportunities, and less pollution. But ultimately, choosing to live in the U.S. often means prioritizing career over family.
Indian parents in the U.S. always dream about the relatively affordable household help available in India, like cooks, maids, and drivers.
