[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't really understand the big deal about godparents...]Can someone explain. [/quote] It's really not that much. http://www.mannersmentor.com/mom-manners-and-kids-too/the-roles-of-godparents-make-up-in-public "You will be at the baby’s christening and perhaps take part in the ceremony. Most importantly, you serve as a mentor and take the symbolic place of his or her parent of the same gender should either one of them pass away. (Not that the child will necessarily come to live with you, a godparent is different from a legal guardian named in a will.) If there should be a death you would step in and create experiences the missing parent would have wanted their son or daughter to have."[/quote] What is being described is separate from the godparent role. It may end up being the same person but the godparent role is more about helping the child have a strong spiritual life. It is not the same as guardianship.[/quote]
