We are grandparents and other family members raising young children who have perhaps experienced loss, change, abuse or neglect. After we make the commitment to care for these children, we often need to find resources for their issues. On a local level we can first approach our family doctor and perhaps he will refer us onto other services. You might hear the terms, "attachment disorder" or ADD, "attention deficit disorder" and may wish to further research these topics. I hope this gives you a handup on your journey. |
