I mean some of us
stayed at home longer than others.
Some of us left at eighteen or whatever the age was and we haven't lived in the same household for years.
So even though we know each other, our roles, our dynamic and our bound boundaries have shifted and we might not have really looked at that.
In a concrete way.
So when you think about having a multi-generational household, or you think about having a grandparent as a caregiver.
Of your children?
it really forces you to look at roles and boundaries.
And the role might be, you know, the grandparent looking at the adult child in the same lens as they did when they were, you know, a adolescent, a teenager, a college student, where as right now they have a whole family, they might have an entire career, they have a different life.
And that takes some conversations, that takes some time to re get to know each other and to be open to what you learn about the other person, whether it be about the grandparent, whether it be about the adult child.
Then when you add grandkids into the mix
the grandparents start to see the adult kids in a different role where they are actually in charge, they're doing the same things, but perhaps in a different way that the grandparent once did.
And the grandparents might start to learn something about themselves as parents.
They might start to learn something about how parenting has changed, how all these different schools of thought or ways to parent are
acceptable because at one point in time there really was only quote unquote one way to do it because we didn't have the internet to share.
We didn't have a lot of talk shows talking about parenting.
We didn't have a lot of parenting books.
We didn't have vlogs about it.
And it really can be an assault to the parenting system.
For grandparents to see all these new and different ways, because no one wants to be obsolete, no one wants to learn that they did parenting wrong, no one wants to see that.
