Orlando, FL, January 29, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Laurel House announces the publication of Welcome to Grandparenting, a resource for Baby Boomer grandparents everywhere, written by mother-daughter team Rosemary Weis and Michelle Johnston. As a company, Laurel House is dedicated to improving the lives of children and families and is developing a line of books and materials to aid parents and grandparents in raising the next generation. Laurel House and its authors are advocates of positive family interactions and the strengthening of all relationships.
Welcome to Grandparenting provides a wealth of creative activities and suggestions for nurturing grandchildren at every age – birth through young adulthood – regardless of one’s means. “We wrote this book in recognition of grandmothers everywhere,” says Rosemary Weis. “We want to celebrate the important role of grandparents in today’s society and provide a user-friendly guide to make the road easier. The United States is heading in historic new directions because one man was influenced by the love of his maternal grandmother, Madelyn Dunham, while another grandmother, Marion Robinson, has helped make his campaign and presidency even possible.”
Indeed, Robinson is moving into the White House to watch over her grandchildren, but she serves as a role model for grandparents worldwide. “She is not alone in making supreme sacrifices for the sake of the next generation. Roughly 5.7 million Americans live with their grandchildren, answering the call to help raise their children’s children,” continues Weis. “As households change and the family structure evolves in the face of these tough economic times, grandparents are needed more than ever.”
“The love and support of these grandparents makes it possible for the parents to work, stretch their childcare dollars, and achieve larger goals that better their families and communities,” says Michelle Johnston. “Even President Obama has credited his election in part to his mother-in-law, publicly stating that he and the First Lady couldn’t have done it without her help.”
In light of their importance to the family, Baby Boomer grandparents are clamoring for information on how to succeed in today’s newly defined arena of grandparenting. Welcome to Grandparenting introduces the concept of “spontaneous grandparenting.” This idea centers around co-parenting and building relationships on a daily basis through little things, rather than just playing grandma or grandpa on special occasions. This selfless approach to grandparenting empowers one to make life better for succeeding generations. The book demonstrates how any grandparent can make a loving impact without it feeling a burden.
Welcome to Grandparenting is available at amazon.com and stores.lulu.com/laurelhousebooks. The book is a quick read cover to cover, but is equally informative if one chooses to read the chapters and suggestions that best fit the situation. Both authors are available for interviews and appearances. Contact Michelle Johnston at macj3k@cfl.rr.com or 407-295-1524 with questions or for further information.
