Being a grandparent allows you to be the parent you should have been the first time around but couldn’t be because of the “too many” expectations placed on parents.
You were too busy finding your footing and figuring it out—swept up in pressure and hurry.
But a grandparent has the time and perspective to be calm, attentive, forgiving, and fun.
They accept the mess.
They know the same bedrooms with unmade beds also had their grandchildren sleeping safe and sound with their minds at ease the night before.
They don’t yell because they know a child calling “grandma” or “grandpa” 20 times is a blessing.
And they don’t care if their grandchildren are the best at anything, as long as they’re happy and healthy. To them, they’re everything exactly as they are.
A GRANDPARENT’S LOVE IS ONE OF A KIND.

I have joined with many parents affected with the surreal , yet accepted issue of child abuse via Pathogenic Parenting / Domestic abuse.
As a survivor of Domestic Abuse, denial abounded that 3 sons were not affected. In my
desire to be family to those who have found me lacking . As a survivor of psychiatric abuse, therapist who abused also and toxic prescribed medications took me to hell on earth with few moments of heaven.
I will share my life, my experiences and my studies and research.. I will talk to small circles and I will council ; as targeted parents , grandparents , aunts , uncles etc. , are
denied contact with a child for reasons that serve the abuser ...further abusing the child.
I grasp the trauma and I have looked at the lost connection to a higher power..
I grasp when one is accustomed to privilege, equality can feel like discrimination..
Shame and affluence silences a lot of facts , truths that have been labeled "negative".
It is about liberation of the soul from projections of a alienator , and abuser ..
