Grandparents providing day-care or other kinds of help

For other grandparents actively involved with their grandchildren by providing day-care, or giving other kinds of help but not actually raising them, do some or all of the following issues apply to you?

  • Do you and your adult children sometimes clash over child-rearing practices?

  • What kind of role do you expect to play - or want to play with your grandchildren?

  • Do you sometimes feel you are being asked to do too much child-minding, but can't say no?

  • Do you have trouble in letting your adult children know you have a life beyond baby-sitting or care-giving?

  • Do you often feel guilty about taking time for yourself?
