More Information about Grandmother
If parents are not willing or unable to properly look after their children (e.g. parent death, financial hindrance or marital difficulties, the role of primary caregivers is very often played by grandparents.
Even if this is not the case and particularly in traditional cultures, grandparents frequently play a direct and clear role for children’s education, and care. Grandparents are relatives of the second degree and have a genetic similarity of 25%.
In modern times, grandparents change their roles, especially in the field of childcare. Since 2007, approximately one-third of the U.S. children live with both their parents and their grandparents in households.
About 67% of these households are also kept by either their two grandparents or their grandmothers.
Likewise, in the absence of their own parents, more than 40% of grandparents in 11 European countries care for their grand kids.
There are a couple of reasons for the increasing prevalence of grandparent involvement. Life expectancy rose while fertility rates dropped.
In turn, the lower fertilization rates mean grandparents can devote more attention and resources to their grandchildren, while their grandparents still are alive and can become involved in childcare.
Grandmother is equivalent to mother and she loves her grandchildren and takes care of them. Grandparent culture is very common. Kids prefer to visit grandma on holidays.
They enjoy the company of elderly. Also your grandmother might have told you many folk tales. She always has a bundle of stories to tell.
Grandmothers Likes cooking food for their children and grandchildren. You might have put on weight after visiting grandma. Grandmothers are our ultimate support and she takes side whenever parents scold us.
They are the one’s who never gets tired of our naughtiness. Her love is infinite. People are more attached to their grandparents than their own parents.
There is no replacement for selfless love and affection that our grandparents offer.
