When you, as grandparents can lend stability, continuity, love and support for your grandchildren, please don’t hesitate to go to bat for being with them.

Grandparents Have a Right to Grandchildren! When your children divorce, what is your role in your grandchildren’s lives? It should not change. Some grandparents hesitate to intrude. However, let us give you some good reasons to intrude! In a study done about divorce in California, children of divorce were given support by only 25% of their extended family, including grandparents. Yet if children lose the relationships of their extended family and their grandparents, too, it compounds and worsens their feelings of loss, confusion, and sadness. When you can lend stability, continuity, love and support for your grandchildren, please don’t hesitate to go to bat for being with them. And if your ex-daughter-in-law or ex-son-in-law remarries, continue your involvement with your grandchildren even there, when at all possible. |
