Produktinformationen zu „Conversation Starters for Every Grandparent (ePub)“
Grandparents often find themselves in awkward positions when it comes to having conversations with their family. Once children become "little people, they develop likes and dislikes and discover their own interests, all of which may often be at odds with the grandparent's. Even the most innocent attempt at chatting can produce such conversation-stoppers as "I dunno, "whatever! or "who cares! Similarly, when a grandparent tries to initiate a talk to his or her own children about grandkids' behavior or activities, it is usually met with a stony disapproving silence or a curt "mind your own business. And when sets of grandparents get together, the opportunities to criticize each other for spoiling or favoring one of the grandchildren-or the parent whom your child married-can become a prescription for disaster.
