This list, which is associated with the GrandsPlace website (http://www.grandsplace.org) is a place where grandparents (and special others) who are raising or helping to raise their grandchildren/relative children can share and learn information; offer ideas and encouragement; express frustrations, etc. related to this lifestyle and the problems many of us and our grandchildren experience. Additionally, some helpful professionals may join the list in order to understand the experience of families; learn themselves and offer helpful comments and understanding from their perspective. Here we can discuss our situations and continued problems, knowing that the audience includes others who know what we are going through. You are not alone! There are no costs involved.
