FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS: GRANDPARENTS
Being a grandparent is different from practically every other relationship we have in life. Normally we are loved for our achievements, the content of what we do. Grandparents are important in a way that overshadows the calls, the visits, or the presents. They are loved for a more elusive quality – just being Grandma or Grandpa.
My three-year-old son sees my mother only every six months. He hardly speaks to her at all. But when he feels bad (or angry at us), he calls wildly for her. Her distant involvement doesn’t matter. She is everything to him just because she is his grandma-not anything else.
Gerontologist Lillian Troll calls grandparents “the family watchdogs.” Even though they normally stand in the wings, they are poised to step forward in a crisis. Grandchildren sense their crucial value early on. They are the family safety net. A good example is when a daughter with children is going through a divorce. In this crisis even distant grandparents often become heavily involved; they visit, comfort, take the grandchildren more often. Their shrouded importance is illuminated, their hidden value clear.
Grandparents also help their grandchildren by helping their daughters and sons. In reviewing the research, Gunhild Hagestad of Northwestern University cites a study showing that if a young mother was close to her mother, she felt more at ease and more competent being a mother herself. In other words, grandparents help their grandchildren by helping their children become better parents.
My daughter Sara, who lives in Michigan, is giving birth in September and I’m flying there to help. Though I’ve forgotten almost everything about new babies myself, we’ll both be there to muddle through. I hope my presence will make her less anxious and get her off to a good start. Even though I’m nervous about being called in as “the expert,” I can’t wait!
Grandparents also can be family mediators, helping parents and children resolve their differences. Hagestad describes a study showing that adolescent girls often took their troubles with Mom to Grandma. These grandmothers had unique leverage. Not only were they a shoulder to cry on, but they helped smooth over the conflict by gently interpreting the parent’s point of view to the child.
Grandparents are the family cement; the glue that keeps the extended family close; the reason sisters and brothers come to see one another on holidays or at special times. This crucial cementing function may become obvious only when a grandparent dies.
When my mother passed away, I lost my sister and her family as well. Christmas had been a tradition in our house since I was a little girl. Everyone trekked to my parents’ house for their annual party even though going meant putting off our vacation plans for a few days. This Christmas, the first since my mother’s death, I decided to carry on the tradition and have the party myself. But without Mom, my sister decided she didn’t have to come and booked plane reservations to Florida instead.
Here is Hagestad’s summary of the ways grandparents enrich a grandchild’s life:
Grandparents serve-as symbols of connectedness within and between lives,- as people who can listen and have the time to do so,-as reserves of time, help, and attention; as links to the unknown past; as people who are sufficiently varied, flexible, and complex to defy easy categories and clear-cut roles.
Understanding that what grandparents symbolize is as important as what they do, let’s look at Hagestad’s last statement. What are the varied, flexible, and complex styles of being a grandparent?
