- W2783244584 abstract "Professionals working with families do so in an environment that bears little resemblance to society 20 years ago. If we look even further back, say 50 years, we can see significant changes to family structures that have occurred over time. In modern society, single parent families; same sex families; blended families as well as the more traditional family structure (nuclear family), of mother, father, and children, are well accepted and integrated in many societies across the world (Tomlin, 1998). Throughout history, grandparents have been featured as part of the family, but changes to ”traditional” family structures in recent times have resulted in the role of grandparents also changing (Uhlenberg, 1998). These changes have increased the likelihood that extended family members, including grandparents, play a critical role in the challenges faced by parents and their children, particularly when children in the family are diagnosed with an intellectual or developmental disability (IDD); Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development [OECD], 2011). Whether the diagnosis occurs at or around the birth of the child or later as a result of illness or an accident, grandparents are confronted with many issues that will challenge their expectations, their identities, their roles, and their relationships. While some grandparents may be overwhelmed by the prospect, others will adapt their roles and contribute to the overall well-being of the family The purpose of this chapter is to provide insight into the experiences of grandparents who have a grandchild with IDD. This insight will explore the demographic factors that have resulted in growing numbers of grandparents in this situation and the impact that having a child with IDD can have on family relationships across the generations. The chapter will describe the roles grandparents adopt with their grandchildren and the emotional responses they may have at the time of diagnosis. As there has been limited research attention given to the impact of a having a grandchild with IDD, this chapter also makes an important contribution to the knowledge of professionals who seek to ensure that the family has the best support available by providing recommendations for consideration." @default.
