    The 1year I lived with my grandparents was the best year of my young life. I got C pluses and Bs in school and being enthusiastic about my life. Once I started drinking and using drugs my grandmother said she wasn’t going to deal with this again. I went back home and got into serious criminal and drug addiction problems. I don’t blame my grandparents for not being able 26:25 to keep me with them 😇 They gave me the gifts of love no matter what I did or didn’t do. God bless them both ❤

    I have adopted two great grandchildren from a grandson and a granddaughter. They are cousins. I am in America and I know some kin have had issues with the system here but I was fortunate both times. I have my 13 year old great granddaughter now. I am so sorry for those that have struggles with the system as it is stressful enough dealing with all the issues the kids are going through and the heart break of children’s and grandchildren on drugs and homelessness.

    My stepmom (who I'm still close to even though she's long divorced from my dad) has no grandchildren but is raising 2 of her niece's grandchildren. That's too much burden for a 75 year old woman but she does it gladly. Her niece's lineage is particularly plagued by dysfunction...died from drugs a few years back. She had four daughters and only one has a nice stable family. One other ther one is ok too but not as traditional. But the youngest two...drugs, violent boyfriends, criminal activity ect. Each if them had two children each. My stepmom raises two, the above mentioned stable family daughter raises one, and my step brother raises another. Hawaiian style, the family always comes together like that, no matter what.

    Your 70s is old to take on a grandchild, u have a big heart. But if u feel ok, why not. I hope you live until he’s at least 15 or 16. That way he’s older and more able to cope emotionally, don’t go yet, 12 or 13 is a bit young,

    My daughter lost two jobs because of the pandemic and she had to relocate to another state far far away. My grandson being in school came to live with me. It’s definitely a change as I am fifty seven and raising a boy. I see this happening more and more. My daughter didn’t have a drug issue, hers was a job issue but we still have to do what we have to do.

    I hope many more “parents” leave their children alone with their parents if they know they hate being one. Just because you’re there physically doesn’t mean your a good parent. I’m saying this because my Husbands sister does this. She left her 2 oldest and then comes and pretends like she’s been there all those years. She doesn’t like being a mom. She always says “man I wish I can just leave”. Leave then! Everyone knows she doesn’t love her children. She let her parents and sister raise them (8 total) basically. Doesn’t make them food, buys only junk food, doesn’t care for their health, let’s them sleep on the floor while she sleeps on a bed, doesn’t care if they shower or eat, makes the oldest change the youngest diaper, goes out every weekend, etc.. I have tried to be compassionate and helpful to her yet anyone tells her anything she tells them off. It’s irritating! If you don’t like being a “mother” leave! The kids will be better off without you telling them that you hate being there! 😤

    grand parents do it in a gesture of 💕 love but raisin a kid in North America cost 250k. So it’s also a very generous gesture. That been said, my is son is 7 years old. We go through 7 fertility cycle to have my son. He is the fist grand child on both side family...he got so much love from the large family. We can’t predict the futur and we hope the best for him. But if it happen he will be teenager father, my husband and I will definitely raise our grand kid. All kids deserve a family. No doubt on this.

    I work for one of the major U.S. supermarket chains. Trust me, I've seen the scenarios presented in this video time and again. There are many, many grandparents who are raising their grandchildren. So much of the time, the reason why boils down to one word - drugs. What really floora me is that some of them are actually GREAT grandparents. I don't know what this world is coming to. My hear goes out to these grandparents and great grandparents (sometimes aunts and uncles also) who care enough to step up to the plate.

    If people are grown up enough to reproduce they should take care of their kids. It’s not fair to the grandparents. There are women who can’t have children and these baby makers want to have fun.
