[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think some of this also has to do with the changing expectations of caring for children. When we were growing up, what you had to do to be considered a good parent is VASTLY different than what you need to do these days. When we were growing up our parents were a lot less involved in our lives, didn't necessarily provide tons of emotional support, etc. So it's reasonable that their styles as grandparents would be similar to their styles as parents.
