Reminders for Grandparents

• Be willing to talk things over.
  
  
• Ask your adult children what kind of help they most need.
  
  
• Support your adult children in their parenting.
  
  
• Notice what they do well and tell them.
  
  
• Ask their advice. Don’t expect them to take your advice.
  
  
• One of the best things that you can do for your grandchildren is to support their parents.
  
  
• Grandparenting is a very special relationship.
  
  
• It is an opportunity to do for your grandchildren what you may not have had the time to do for your own children.
