Overcoming Conflicts
As a parent, many of us wonder how to engage our parents to be grand parents, or to be the grand parents they should be.? For some of us this is even more challenging because there may be some baggage from our own childhood.? If possible, and safe for your children, take the time to deal with some of the family stuff and overcome conflicts for the sake of the children.? This may mean taking the time for discussion, setting goals and even asking for grand parents involvement.
For some families who live close together this is a no brainer, but for others who are separated by distance and emotional distance this may be more difficult.? It is a relationship worth making time for and effort towards.? I Timothy 5:4 reminds us, ?But if a widow has children or grandchildren, these should learn first of all to put their religion into practice by caring for their own family and so repaying their parents and grandparents, for this is pleasing to God. ?
Take the time, and effort if need be, to make this relationship a priority and even repair relationship for the sake of the children in your home.
