I know my role as a grandparent is different from that of my own grandma. I do more for my grandson. I feed him, take him to the doctor and pick him up from day care, while still working. These are things my grandma didn t do. We went to see her for Sunday visits and came home.
Grandparents have a vital role to play in family life.
They are rich sources of stability and warmth that many children need. The grandparents of the millennium are living linger and healthier lives. This allows them the opportunity to serve as supporters, baby sitters, caregivers, role models, listeners and friends. Share family history and traditions. Send special letter and notes.
