·       Two in 10 grandparents say they are living in a multi-generational household; 30%
   of those households include grandchildren.

·       Just over one in 10 grandparents (13%) provides care on a regular basis for at least
   one grandchild. Of those, 32% are providing care five or more days per week.

·       Topping the list of very important values grandparents wish to pass down are
   honesty (88%), good behavior (82%), self-sufficiency (70%), higher education
   (69%), and good health habits (68%).

·       The majority (62%) of grandparents have provided financial support or monetary
   gifts for grandchildren within the past five years. The total average amount provided
   over the past five years among this group for all grandchildren was $8,289 total,
   with more than half having given up to $5,000.

In a companion publication, Grandparents Investing in Grandchildren, Actions Speak Louder Than Words, they outline ways grandparents can guide and help their grandchildren. Here are the highlights. Get the publication for the details.
