No one is entitled to a helper and no one who cannot afford one should have one.
My issue lies with unusual rises in family expenses without any similar rises in income.
Same as rent. Expats constantly moan about their rents going up by 50-100%...
Sure, but those issues pale in comparison to those of a FDH who can be legally worked 16+ hours per day (with no additional compensation)
That is a far greater concern than raising pay from 1x to 1.5x for hours worked past 44 hours.
FDH would love to just get paid 1x for working in excess of 44 hours per week.
