Ready or not, you're a parent again. And if you're wondering how
exactly you're going to raise your children's children, you're not
alone.More than 3 million Americans are raising their
grandchildren, and they, like you, have done this all before. But
this time, you're parenting under different circumstances--and
likely as a result of scenarios you never envisioned for your
family.Now more than ever, substance use has made many birth
parents simply unfit for the job. The opioid epidemic has ravaged
families across the country. Grandparents are stepping out of
retirement to care for their grandchildren, who may have been born
addicted to opioids as well.Or the impetus might be mental health,
incarceration, or immaturity. Whatever the reason for your new
role, your kinship care is needed to help your grandchildren adjust
to a shifting family dynamic while perhaps facing problem behaviors
that can develop as a result of a difficult past environment,
neonatal abstinence, or any number of other birth syndromes.Your
top priority now is to help your grandchildren to emerge thriving
from what may initially feel like a less-than-ideal situation. The
deeply rewarding experience of creating a grandfamily in the midst
of crisis reminds us that all families are built and strengthened
over time.The Grandfamily Guidebook offers just the right mix of
expert advice and insights gathered from thousands of grandparents
who are raising grandchildren. With this comprehensive guide you'll
avoid common pitfalls as you adjust to your new normal, and have a
touchstone to come back to as things unfold. With advice on
everything from engaging with birthparents, to managing legal and
financial considerations, challenges with school and social life,
and your own self-care, you'll always have a practical, inspiring
guide to building a grandfamily.
