"Those poor kids will have to grow up way too fast to take care of not only themselves, but thier grandmother as well."
One thing those children are learning is COMPASSION.. it is something that all children should learn. The 3 children this 70 yr old grandmother has have learned that not only are they loved but to care about others. They will most likely be Doctors and Nurses with all kinds of compassion for their patients.
Did some reading today on the subject and found that over 7 MILLION children in the United States are being raised by grandparents. WOW !! That far outnumbers the children in foster care and saves the states ALOT of money because according to my research relative caregivers do not get much over $150. per month to provide for these children. They do it out of love for the children that are family even if the family is not always the best.
