| Annotation | Some grandparents have to relearn parenting skills as they take on full-time care of their grandchildren. The author evaluates the support available for grandparents in this position from organisations such as the Grandparents Association, Grandparents Plus, and the more recently formed Grandparents as Parents (GaP). The article also notes discrepancies in the financial help that is - or rather is not - available to this group of carers. (RH). |
