Value of Wrinkles: Caregiving, Aging & Intergenerational Connection

Ep 76: When Grandparents are not Kid-People


Listen Later

Your parents or in-laws just aren’t kid people. They’re not friendly. They’re not engaging and they don’t know how to interact with the grandkids.

We do want our kids to know their grandparents, but because the grandparents aren’t kid people, we get frustrated. In this episode, I want to help you work through this issue!

 

HIGHLIGHTS

2:08 – They want to engage but, they feel inadequate in connecting with the grandkids.

3:49 – Are they just not relational?

4:40 – Asian Americans culture and relationship building

5:27 – How can parents give guidance?
