Book The New Art of Being a Grandparent

Having become a grandmother, Claude-Suzanne Didierjean-Jouveau, a specialist in proximal parenting, shares her thoughts on the role and place of grandparents. His credo? Grandparents who are caring towards their children, in the continuity of mothering and respect for the child who has become an adult and in turn a parent.After discussing the history of grandparenthood, the author shares her observations and conveys many moving testimonies on the way in which affection, support and transmission are embodied in grandparent/parent/child relationships. The author then offers a “small vade-mecum for the use of grandparents” which lists the mistakes not to make on this path.
