Session: 1-04; November 2, 2017

What do Carol Burnett, Oprah Winfrey and Willie Nelson have in common? They were raised by their grandparents. According to recent U.S. Census data, 4.9 million American children are being raised solely by their grandparents. If this number continues to rise, and most believe it will, by 2020 grandparents will be raising approximately 10 million children. Teresa will share inspirational stories of grandparents she met through her blog, NanaHood.com, who thought they were finished being parents, but suddenly found themselves raising their grandchildren. She will also share what they have learned from their experiences, as well as tips on how and where to get help.
