Produktbeschreibung

"Shares what it is to be a grandparent and how to keep family conflicts to a minimum and joy at the maximum... thoughtful and inspiring." -Publishers Weekly For many grandparents, a grandchild offers a second chance to become the parent they didn't have the time or the energy to be when raising their own children. Being a grandparent, family relationships expert Jane Isay argues, is a wonderful opportunity to draw on the wisdom of age. Incorporating her personal experience, dozens of interviews, and the latest findings in psychology, Isay shows how a grandparent can use his or her unique perspective and experience to create a deep and lasting bond that will echo throughout a grandchild's life. She explores the realities of today's multigenerational families, identifying problems and offering solutions to enhance love, trust, and understanding among grandparents, parents, and grandchildren. She also offers a wealth of practical advice, including on such topics as when to get involved, when to stay away, and how to foster a strong relationship when you're separated by long distance. An outstanding resource for grandparents and grandparents-to-be, and an enlightening read for all,Unconditional Loveis a beautiful and psychologically astute look at what it means to be an engaged grandparent. "Will answer many questions... Research and individual stories explain the special position of grandparents in a child's life." -Kirkus Reviews Named a Favorite Parenting Book by Greater Good Magazine
