This Grandma is for Children and their Parents!
In Grandma Gets Grumpy, Grandma loves her grandchildren and plays with them affectionately. She has a puppet, toys, and dress up clothes to insure that her grandchildren have a good time while visiting. Then, one night while she has her 5 young grandchildren (from 3 sets of parents)in her care, the mess gets too big and the children get too careless. You bet that Grandma will grumpy! My favorite sentence is when the grandchildren remark to each other that she is getting grumpy, just like their moms and dads. Grandma replies, "You bet I do...That's because I taught Lassen's mom, and Brian's mom, and Casey's dad everything they know about being grumpy. And I'm older, so I've had more practice." This Grandma shows that it is possible to have a fun, loving relationship with children and still set boundaries for behavior and discipline. This is one Grandma that any child would wish they had and one that any parent would want to care for their children.
