On 6PR this afternoon: grand-parents as a child-care option

Today many parents have to work and find child-care excessively expensive. Consequently, many children are being taken care of by their grandparents for many hours a week. Problems arise when parents and grandparents have differing expectations and child-rearing beliefs. I am often asked by grandparents what they should do if they disagree with their children’s choice of food or discipline. At other times, parents turn to me for guidelines of how to get the carer’s compliance.

At 6.30pm EST this afternoon, among other topics, I will be discussing the role of grandparents.  I hope you will join us.You can listen via radio or online.
