Out of the shadows: Are grandfathers defining their own roles in the modern family in Denmark?; George Leeson -- 5. Grandfathers: the parents’ perspective in the United Kingdom; Anne-Marie O'Leary (Netmums) and Ann Buchanan -- 6. Maori Grandfathers in Aotearoa (New Zealand); Judith Davey and Cherryl Smith -- 7. Understanding grandfatherhood in Asia through Chinese grandfathers in Singapore; Leng Leng Thang -- Part III Factors influencing grandfather involvement -- 8. Grandfathers in Australia.

Grandfather involvement in Finland: impact of divorce , re-marriage, and widowhood; Mirkka Danielsbacka and Antti O. Tanskanen -- Part IV Impact on grandfathers; 11. Physical health of custodial and caregiving grandfathers in North America; Julie Hicks Patrick, Danielle K. Nadorff, and Valerie K. Blake; Part V Impact on grandchildren 12. Maternal grandfathers and child development in England: impact on the early years; Antti O. Tanskanen and Mirkka Danielsbacka -- 13. Grandfather involvement and adolescent well-being in England and Wales; Jo-Pei-Tan and Ann Buchanan -- 14. Grandfather involvement and adolescent well-being in South Africa; Lauren Wild -- 15. Grandfathering and adolescent adjustment difficulties and pro-social behaviour among Israeli Jewish and Arab adolescents; Shalhevet Attar-Schwartz -- 16. Conclusions: what have we learnt?; Anna Rotkirch and Ann Buchanan.

This is the first book to bring together international scholars from around the world and from a wide variety of disciplines, to discover what is known about grandfathers and analyse the impact of close involvement with their grandchildren. Within the context of increased divorce rates, single parent families and healthier, more active elders, grandfathers have come out of the shadows and re-invented themselves in a new caring, nurturing role. These original studies demonstrate that grandfather involvement is independently and positively associated with higher levels of child well-being in the UK and South Africa, as well as in Arab and Israeli teenagers, and pre-school children in England. The chapters conclude that societies could benefit from encouraging more grandfathers to become actively involved in their grandchildren’s lives and argues the case for grandparent visitation rights in those countries that currently do not have them. .
