Dear Editor,
The future of our country rests with all our children and their upbringing, and a valuable part of their upbringing is the love and influence of grandparents.
I have talked to a lot of grandparents lately (myself included) and I am disheartened by the obstructing walls that have negatively influenced our families. It would be easy to brush this aside, but it is a reality that must be dealt with.
As grandparents we have the wisdom and advantage of age and experience to help our children and grandchildren. Don’t let our rights and love of family be discarded.
If there is enough interest, I will start a grandparent support group. The purpose is to help each other, use teamwork to get our messages across and to aid society in building back up family structure. Please email me at [email protected].
