TRANSACTIONAL LOVE vs UNCONDITIONAL LOVE

Published by

This is officially a tough one for Grandparents, but it may be a way to help our Grandkids to understand how much they are Loved.

Please read this article enough to understand that my first and foremost interest is the best outcome for our Grandchildren. I have written many articles on this blog about child’s best interests and how that gets lost in some of the Grandparents’ Rights issues. This may be a vehicle to communicate our Grands’ confusing messages when a family is busy doing what a family does and doesn’t. Slow down long enough to help our young folks understand that many things happen in a family, especially a divided extended family, are operating daily.

Grandparents are uniquely positioned in the family structure to deliver a powerful and affirming message to these young impressionable minds.
