Do you agree with the idea that children should be raised by their grandparents? Why yes/no?
I think this is really an issue. In my oppinion children have to spent time with their grandparents. And also the parents sometimes needs that. But i dont’t like how the question is formulated. And i can say that i dont’t agree that children „should be raised by their grandparents” . I don’t emphazis with the word „should”. Because if we use this word it means that parent’s job is only to born the child and then he should be raised by the grandparents. This means they don’t have to the nothing for that child after he is borned.
So, my oppinion is this. Grandparents should help the parents in raising the children. I am totally in with this . Everybody knows how hard it is to raise children especially when is the first one. Here is where we need the experience of the grandparents.
Let’s take my example. I ca not say I was a child raised by my grandparents, but we lived in the same house. From my grandma i learned to saw and to cook some specially kinds of food. When i was a little girl she always told me stories and she talked about my gran-grandparents achievements.
And from my grandfather i had to learn a lot.He tried to learn me to draw but when he saw that I am not that talented he was glad just to play chess and backgammon with me.
He was a very good man, hard – working man . He made a lot of interesting stuff in the house. I always liked to be near him when he was inventing something. Now everybody says about me I am a problem solver. I think because i spent so much my time with my grandfather and I learned from him everything. I learned how to find solutions to everything.
Those kind of experience had a lot to do with the way i grew up. It helped me emotionally . I think every child needs that. A grandparent near him, especially those days when our parents are getting busier and busier. We need someone close to spend our childhood and to talk about our new esperiences in life as we grow up.
Relating to the natural environment the child develops the ability to adapt more flexible, he increases the degree of responsibility still at an early age, and many experiences can enrich the knowledge and skills.
Well, the good news is that along with the grandparents children have a new chance in life . They grow up near mature people who have passed through many trials of life and look at problems with serenity.
They know that most of them are solved in time, nothing is irreversible and that any improvements can occur in their lives and children’s.
So I think grandparents should participate at raisinig the children along with the parents. And I also think that without grandparents , is very hard.
