Drawing on her personal experience, dozens of interviews, and the latest findings in psychology, Isay shows how a grandparent can use his or her unique perspective and experience to create a deep and lasting bond that will echo throughout a grandchild’s life. She explores the realities of today’s multigenerational families, identifying problems and offering solutions to enhance love, trust, and understanding between grandparents, parents, and children. She also offers a wealth of practical advice on when to get involved, when to stay away, and how to foster a strong relationship when you’re separated by long distance.

In lovely prose and through delightful stories, Isay shows us how the advent of grandchildren offers families moments for healing and redemption. A great gift for grandparents-to-be and a wonderful resource for all, Unconditional Love is a beautiful and psychologically astute look at what it means to be an engaged grandparent.
