Jealous of your child's bond with grandma? A psychologist explains what it really means (opens the original)
Read excerpt
While parents raise their children amidst the rush of routines, work, and daily rules, the figure of the grandparent emerges as an oasis of calm. This is what we might call the 'grandparent effect', a sanctuary where time stands still and listening becomes absolute. With the help of child and adolescent psychologist Carmen Botello Fuenteseca, we delve into why their calming presence can soothe a child's nervous system, build long-term self-esteem and leave an indelible mark that will stay with t

Read excerpt
In many families, grandparents are that safe space children and teenagers turn to when the world feels overwhelming.
