When grandparents become parents
|
We have been asked by a number of our visitors to include
a section for Grandparents who for whatever reason have
become the main carers of their grandchildren.
Where we find another site that offers the support
we believe you would like need our policy is not to
duplicate it by further extending our own content but
rather to offer a link to the external site.
The Family Rights Group have an excellent article
on their site 'Second Time Around: A guide for
grandparents raising their grandchildren'
To see the article visit www.frg.org.uk/index.asp
and click on the 'Grandparent Carers' option.
