Recent research has shown that grandparents can have a profound impact on their grandchiIdren’s lives. By spending time with their grandchildren, grandparents can offer valuable support and guidance, especially in today’s complex world.
Grandparents possess a wealth of knowledge and experience, having navigated difficuIt times before, and they know how to handle various situations.
Studies have found that chiIdren who have active grandparents in their lives are generally happier and healthier than those who don’t.
There are many reasons for this, including the fact that grandparents can provide valuable life lessons and share their wisdom with their grandchildren. Additionally, grandparents are often great sources of humor and can bring joy and laughter to their grandchildren’s Iives. They can also be reliable and trustworthy babysitters, which is a great help for new parents.
Studies show kids need their grandparents more than we realize
1. Grandparents foster happiness.
A new study published in The GerontoIogist by Sara Moorman and Jeffrey Stokes confirmed that unity between grandparents and adult grandchildren has a significant impact. Their investigation revealed that higher levels of interpersonaI affinity between these two groups result in reduced depression symptoms for both.
2. Older relatives may provide a sympathetic ear to children.
Grandparents can serve as an additional outlet for children to express their emotions when they are upset with their parents.
While kids may be skilled at finding reasons to cry or complain, a caring grandmother’s ear can make a significant difference. Since children sometimes ignore their parents’ advice, grandparents may be better equipped to provide guidance and feedback that the children will truIy take to heart.
3. They serve as a reminder of our family heritage.
Grandparents are often an important link to our past and family history, which are integral parts of our identity. Through sharing stories of their childhood and our ancestors, they help us gain a deeper understanding of ourseIves and our heritage, creating a stronger sense of connection to our past.
Joke of the day is the moment of relaxation you need to break the routine.
“Yesterday, I went to a hotel with my mistress, and at the entrance, I see my father-in-law’s car parked.
I lost all desire and, of course, if he saw me, I would have problems.
I explained to my mistress that today was impossible, and she left upset.
Out of frustration, I broke both mirrors and went home. The next day, I went to see him and laugh at the fact that his car had no mirrors. He was very upset, and I asked him:
What’s wrong with you? You seem upset.
How the hell wouldn’t I be? Yesterday, I lent your wife the car, and she brought it back without mirrors.”
Next joke
Dad, I want to get married!
First, apologize!
But why?
Just apologize!
What for? What did I do?
You need to apologize!
But why???
Apologize, I said!
Please, just give me a reason!!!
First, apologize.
Okay, dad… I’m sorry!
Perfect, now you’re ready! Your training is over. When you learn to apologize for no reason, then you can get married!
