[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am African American and grew up in a lower class neighborhood aka "the hood" and it was exceedingly common for grandparents to be raising their grandkids. No one would blink at a 54 year old at the grocery store with a baby and a toddler. And when I said raise them...I mean raise them. Day in and day out. So I know it can be done. I see it all the time even now. Is it the best case scenario? I guess not but what really is??[/quote] Yes, it is best to keep those kids in the family. Its far more common in the African American community to just take the kids vs. adopt. Kinship care[/quote]
