‘Dads from across the water’ talk regarding ‘twilight parenting’ where grandparents take care of their children.
In the 23rd episode of MBC’s ‘Dads Who Crossed the Water’ (directed by Lim Chan), which airs at 9:10 pm on the 5th, the fathers of the childcare neighborhood are discussing the topic of ‘twilight parenting’.
On this day, at the childcare neighborhood meeting, the parents of Olivia, a working mother who came from France, take care of her three grandchildren, Louie, Luna, and Rumi, on behalf of her daughter and her daughter, who have schedules.
Andy, a South African father who saw this, said, “It is not common in South Africa that grandparents help raise children.” Zhao Lijing, a Chinese father, introduces cultural differences, saying, “It’s strange in China when grandparents don’t look following their children.” Italian father Alberto hints at grandparents’ paid leave, saying that Europe also helps grandparents with childrearing.
Following this, the fathers of the parenting neighborhood said, ‘When a grandchild is born, do you take care of the child at dusk? Share your opinions freely on the subject of ‘Don’t do it?’ Tumul, an Indian father, says, “I learned how hard parenting is while raising a child, so I will take care of my child at dusk.”
In Gyo-jin said, “I have talked regarding raising children at dusk with my wife, So Yi-hyun,” and revealed the conditions for raising children at dusk, earning sympathy from those around them.
On the other hand, Kim Na-young, the mother of two sons, was asked if she would take care of children at dusk, and she confessed in surprise, “I think Shin-woo and Lee Joon-yi don’t have to get married,” drawing attention. In addition, Jang Yoon-jung draws attention by hinting that she is in a ‘weekend joint parenting’ with her son Yeon-woo’s friends and family. Upon hearing this, Kim Na-young said with envy that she was “honey parenting.”
‘Dads who crossed the water’ is broadcast at 9:10 pm on this night.
