Grandparents are, after all, grand parents. As I researched the subject of grandparenting I discovered some interesting facts, the first being that grandparents aren't necessarily old. There are 60 million grandparents in America today, and the number is accelerating rapidly because baby boomers are entering the grandparenting years. And we're finding that grandparenting is more complicated than it used to be. Twelve states now allow grandparents to petition for visitation rights without prerequisites.
Support groups exist to give grandparents advice on legal actions.
More and more grandparents find themselves providing regular childcare, and approximately 3.2 million American children live full-time with their grandparents. In 867,000 American homes, grandparents are raising their grandchildren in the place of parents. If his parents fail him, his grandparents may yet prove his salvation.

These were obscene places that included immoral sexual practices as a worship rite to the pagan goddesses of fertility.
