Every grandparent can testify that if someone would have just told them that grandchildren were so much fun, the choice would have been made to have them first.
2Tim. 1:5 When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also.
Grandparents should be a refuge in the storm. Grandparents play a major role in the Kingdom of God.
A. Never undermine your children's authority over their children. You are not the parents. Allow children to raise their children.
B. Don't play dumb like you don't know what you are doing.
C. Never make fun of their rules. In an effort to be the good guys in the grandchildren's eyes
1Cor. 16:13 Keep your eyes open, hold tight to your convictions. Do not have the right to undermine those convictions of the parent whether you agree or not.
D. Never throw fits in front of grandchildren because you didn't get your way.
E. Encourage our grandchildren to always remember that their parents love them and have their best interest in mind.
Grandparents give grandchildren roots. Grandchildren give grandparents renewal.
