Abstract:
Grandmothers have always been crucial family members, but they are often pushed aside or held at arm's length, harming children, parents, and grandmothers themselves. This book guides grandmothers to respond to the needs of today's families, integrate themselves into family life, and form warm, lasting bonds with their grandchildren.
