The roles of today’s grandparents
have drastically changed from fifty
years ago. Grandparents are now
expected to give up their retirement
and that “grandparent relationship”
to fill in the position of “parent” when
the child’s parents can no longer do
so.
This can be a hardship for both
the grandparents and the
grandchildren. Grandchildren in the
care of their grandparents are more
likely to have needs and behavior
problems. Grandparents raising
grandchildren are more likely to
experience increased depression,
poverty, isolation and need
assistance.
There has been a 77% increase in
grandparents raising their
grandchildren, but there have
actually been cuts in the funds and
programs that would assist these
families. |
