The key for grandchildren to be genuinely grand are grandfathers. | |||
Click here to read the first 75 lines of the story grandchildren have so much going for them today that I never thought they would need somebody like me. When the grandchildren are under my “supervision,” they have a freedom that they do not have anywhere else. As a grandfather, I have a hard time pronouncing the word N O. It did not take those grandchildren long to figure that out. Every once in a while, I'll hear, "Let's ask Granddad.” Then I know they are asking me for something that maybe nobody else would approve. After all, grandfathers are just like that. In such a world that we live in, our grandchildren need to understand that there's something in this world that they can really enjoy. That's my job as a grandfather. To give them reasons to laugh and enjoy themselves. As much as my grandchildren do for me, I do for them as well. We're a team, and we work well together. Grandchildren need someone in their life not stressed with schedules and finances and all of that stuff. They need to see someone in their life that is happy and glad to see them. Don't let this get out, but they need to see someone in their life that has them as a priority. Nothing is more important in a grandfather's life than his grandchildren. If he does his job well, they will come to understand that they are the most important people in his life. I like this one Bible verse. “Children's children are a crown to the aged, and parents are the pride of their children” (Proverbs 17:6). The key for grandchildren to be genuinely grand are grandfathers. Tweet
