| Abstract | Recognizing that children today will spend almost half of their lives as grandparents, this paper examines grandparenthood and the grandparent-grandchild relationship. The paper focuses on the grandparent role, discussing styles and dimensions of grandparenting. A number of variables are discussed directly affecting grandparenting: (1) age of grandparents and grandchildren; (2) gender of grandparents and grandchildren; (3) maternal versus paternal grandparents; (4) accessibility and availability of grandparents; (5) grandparental role perceptions; and (6) ethnic and cultural variations. The paper also considers the impact of divorce on grandparents, including step-grandparenthood and legal issues and visitation rights. Finally, suggestions for future research on grandparenthood are presented. Contains 46 references. (KB) |
