Grandparenting in divorced families is the first in-depth
exploration of grandparents' relationships with their adult
children and grandchildren in divorced families. It asks what part
grandparents might play in public policy and whether measures
should be taken to support their grandparenting role. Do
grandparents have a special role in family life that ought to be
recognised in law? This book examines grandparents' roles and
functions and gives voice to their attitudes and opinions.

readership. Grandparents and parents in divorced families will
