Catskin, there are exceptions okay? My mom did not live with her in-laws. But my chaachi lived with my dada/dadi and even she never felt uneasy about having her married siblings over…in fact my chachi’s nieces/nephews would even spend the night over. As for the expenses…my grandparents got their money from their sons (my dad, chacha, taya) which was used for a variety of purposes…(hospitality, etc). Even when my mom wasn’t in Pak…my dadi would make courtesy phone calls/visists to my mom’s side of the family for various occasions.

So if you accept that there are exceptions then my point about desi culture was correct and your family may have been an exception.
