Answer to Question 1

Grandparents may have to help a child and grandchildren after a divorce. Because children live with their mother in the majority of divorces, paternal grandparents often lose contact with their grandchildren. In addition, divorce and/or remarriage of grandparents adds a new level of relationships to work with.

Answer to Question 2
