Abstract
Much is understood about parenting and its impact on children’s development and well-being, given the large amount of caregiving research in the past decades. However, not much has been done on grandparents, despite the reality that they are actively involved in looking after children. Why an article on grandparents? Partly because we live in a rapidly ageing society. Our lifespan has increased significantly, contributing to growing populations of elderly people. So children are more likely to grow up having grandparents around longer than before.
