As grandparents we have come a long way in the quest to create an atmosphere that allows our grandchildren the maximum of love and support in the extended family structure. The good news is that in most cases Grandparents do get to visit with and be a part of their grandkids lives without having to exert their grandparents rights, and that is mutually beneficial for everyone in the family. In addition we are getting closer to my own guiding principal […]

This article is the forward to my book, “No Greater Loss”, offered by Dr. Susanne Taft, Psychologist Children are our legacy and the future. They need all of the resources, encouragement, and belief in their abilities that can be provided to them. Grandparents are a good source for this encouragement and can contribute greatly to their growth and development. In fact, grandparents have experience and knowledge to share that they learned in life and from decisions they made, good […]

The deeper I dig into the area of Grandparenting and the need for some form of Grandparents rights I find some statistical as well as anecdotal consistencies. I find more and more that extended families with 6-8 grandchildren will be fine with 2/3rds or 3/4ths of the grandkids but may experience trouble with effective visitation and correspondence with that smaller fraction of the family. This is a generalization, of course, but I make it to clarify a point about Grandparenting […]

The thing that bothers me most about the increasing need for Grandparents rights is that it is the children who suffer. Our grandkids deserve all the love and support we can give them. It is when this support is interrupted by two adults that are attempting to resolve and/or dissolve their own relationship with each other but using the children as weapons. As a caring grandparent this makes me angry. I realize that marriages are disintegrating at an ever increasing […]

I thank God every day that I don’t need to assert my grandparents rights on behalf of my grandchildren. It is heart rending to read about some circumstances that put children in volatile and dangerous situations due to a change in the structure of their functioning family unit. These changes can occur because of the death of one of the parents or (as is true in one half of the marriages) a divorce that results in an extended family and […]

It all starts when that little bundle of joy wraps his or her tiny hand around Grandpa’s finger. Now they have you……forever. Don’t fight it, the struggle is useless, you are hooked. The journey has begun. This is to be a journey of discovery for the new grandparents and for the repeat grandparents, still a thrill all the same. After 6 grandchildren in the past 20 years I can attest that each time is breathtaking, awesome and wonderful. Aren’t you […]

In the news almost every day we learn of some very sad and nearly impossible to comprehend situations of child neglect and abuse. Here in Charlotte North Carolina the other day a woman left her 4 young children sleeping completely alone in a home with a kerosene heater in the bedroom. The house caught on fire and a seven year old daughter and 4 year old son survived but tragically their 1 and 2 year old brothers perished in the […]

There are many things that can happen that can cause a grandparent to lose the right to visit their grandchildren. For most grandparents nothing could be more devastating. Some of the things that can cause this unfortunate situation are divorce, the death of one or both of the parents, or just a disagreement with the parents. The reason it happens does not matter what does matter is that fact that the situation is detrimental to the grandchildren as well as […]
