Raising kids is tough, just as many parents mention every day. Assistance isn't something everyone has, and it can be pricey. But if you're one of the fortunate ones who can afford it, we hope you treat your helpers right. Treat them with respect, because even though they're paid, they're there to make your life easier.
Unfortunately, not everyone gets this. Some people, especially those used to constant help, don't appreciate it. Others are even worse, looking down on the people they hire. A Reddit user who knows the value of hard work wanted to teach her children to respect workers. However, she had a moment of self-doubt and posted on the 'Am I the A**hole' subreddit.
