A few of my friends have become Grandparents recently and it got me thinking about what I hope to do or definitely not do for my dcs and grandchildren if I am lucky enough to have them😊
Obviously it would depend on varying things but I would like to,
Have a warm and loving relationship with the gc.
Babysit but not too much😊
Be interested in them as people as they grow older.
Visit in the newborn stage and be helpful but not interfering.
Take the baby so the sleep deprived parent could nap.
Bring food or cook a meal for them sometimes.
I suppose it's a bit like when you have your own children, you look back on your childhood and try to use it as a guide. Taking the good things you remember and not doing the not so good/bad.
Are there things you will/won't do with your grandchildren?
