Why is the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren better?

In today's family, many children are closely related to grandparents, but relatively distant from their parents, and even some grandparents have become each other's spiritual sustenance to some extent. This kind of grandparents have more feelings for their grandchildren than their children, which is also commonly known as "intergenerational relatives." Old people love their grandchildren much more than their parents love their children. It is not enough to explain them only by blood relationship, and there are psychological reasons.

Grandchildren are like the rising sun, and grandparents are like the afterglow of the sunset. They are the same and more complementary. As the saying goes, "old children" and "little adults" mean that this generation has something in common; Grandchildren are together, the young are caressed, and the old are happy. They complement the gaps and gaps in time and space left by the busy work and housework of the middle generation, which is an important reason for the generation gap.

Because of their age, father and son have many opinions on life concepts and other issues, which are prone to estrangement, contradiction and even conflict; The grandparents and grandchildren are defenseless because of their age, so it is easier to get close, which is undoubtedly an important factor in the formation of intergenerational affection. Many old people don't want to kiss their children when they are young, but they are too busy at work and have no time to take care of them. But most old people actually have quite a lot of leisure time, and the potential "love for the young" psychology will naturally be released to the fullest in the younger generation.

Grandson represents innocence and purity, and the world of adults is not only full of competition and challenges, but also may have deception and traps. After the old people lose their social competitiveness, they naturally want to get in touch with their grandchildren. The little grandson represents life and vitality. A family composed only of old people and adults often seems too rigid or serious. If you have a naughty little grandson, although you need the careful care of adults, their naivety also brings a lot of happiness.
