Why is a 70 year old taking care of grandchildren?

That's the PARENTS job.

You know, putting food on the table, providing shelter, love, etc.

I’m afraid certain people in society who receive benifits of any kind are never satisfied. ..and always claiming victumhood 24/7.

I was surprised in Florida with a community who were getting the same help as others yet complaining. It just seems to be in certain mindsets that it’s never enough.

You might be surprised how many people you know were know
were raised by their grandparents.

It’s not unusual at all.

Parents split up. Neither of them can afford to raise the
kids on their own. One of the parents may not be working,
or may have walked out leaving the only option an adoption.

Many grandparents step in because they can’t stand the idea
of losing contact with the kids, or having them raised by a
non family member.
