Annotation | In the US, increased divorce rates, longevity in multi-generational families, and activism by older people are a part of the context in which the role of grandparents in the family, an overview of grandparent visitation statutes, and controversy about visitation rights are discussed. Family dynamics interact with a myriad of US state statutes to suggest implications for research and policy. (RH). |
