Being a grandparent in a blended family can generate all sorts of dynamics depending on your situation. Claudette Chenevert, otherwise known as the Stepmom Coach and I discussed many of these at length when we sat down for our chat covering topics relevant for grandparents who find themselves in blended families.

One of the tips she shared during that conversation was about the importance of cherishing the time you have with your grandchildren, even if it's not as much as you'd like. She says quality moments together can make a profound impact on their lives, and she encourages being fully present, creating positive memories, and enjoying each other's company without getting entangled in any complex family dynamics.

She also says, gone are the days of trying to outdo others with lavish gifts and reminds us that what truly matters is how we make our grandchildren feel when we're with them.
