I had three step-mothers and a mother living at the same time .There were 20 siblings. At ten I joined a church which was anti-divorce, so I caught the fever. I was determined I would not put my children through all of the explanations of blended, blended, blended families. "My sister's grandmother etc. So I didn't go into marriage looking out. We had to learn to work it out. All of my kids were going to be by the same daddy. No, lengthy diagrams. So we had our children and our grandchildren. Some of our children reached back and used the values of their forefathers, had nerve enough to tell me that those were my values not theirs. Getting to know and have a relationship with my grandchildren was an obsession of mine. i would agonize every time I would "lose" one. I was busy during my young life, going to prisons, teaching, school, counseling" so I am /was not a babysitter, Parents and children were welcomed at the home together. I had two teenage granddaughters stay with me, one for two school years, and one for about four months.They were sixteen or more so it wasn't babysitting.
