"Through the stories told by grandparents themselves, Elaine K.
Williams reveals the challenges, commitment, and love experienced
by grandparents raising their grandchildren. This book not only
provides understanding and helpful information, but will also touch
the hearts of all who read it."
-Sandy P., a grandparent who raised a grandchild
"I've waited five years for this wonderful author, Elaine K.
Williams, to complete her groundbreaking gathering of knowledge
from three generations so that we can clearly see the patterns of
grandparents who are raising their grandchildren. The most
important points are to help grandparents understand the dynamics
of the emotional and behavioral challenges their grandchildren
face, and the impactful trauma that all generations experience. She
brings the keys of caring, connection, and communication forward to
assist families to heal. Highly recommended."
