Every family looks a little different. In some parts of the U.S., a family structure where grandparents take on guardian responsibilities for their young grandchildren is fairly common.
These families are referred to as "grandfamilies," or "kinship families." Kinship families can also refer to a family where someone other than a grandparent is stepping in to provide care. Grandfamilies often begin when a child might otherwise go without regular care, and a grandparent is willing to step into the role of parent for them.
