Hi all, before I start I do know there was a post on here back in mid 2014 but nothing seemed to come of it.
Abit of background...
My 2 boys aged 2 and 9, don't have any grandparents.
My husband doesn't know his dad and his mum doesn't have anything to do with him or us.
My parents I haven't spoken to in years - long story but not great parents, us kids wernt the priority - now the same with the grandkids. they have nothing to do with my boys don't even send birthday or Christmas cards.
Both mine and my husbands GPs are all passed :-(
I had such a great relationship with my GPs they were more like my mum and dad, the stories, the visits, the old ways, the nanny cuddles and granddad fixer and it makes me sad that my boys have no one of the older generation to have this with.
They do have uncles and an aunt, who we see often but they are still young and have their own families etc.
I would love to adopt some grandparents for my boys, for visits and days out and maybe even for the extra cuddles.
I have searched and searched and cannot find any service that provides this. America seem to have one but nothing in the UK.
I don't want to adopt a granny and just send £5 to another country I want real life face to face interaction.
I realise there are security issues around this so would need to be vigilant.
Doe anyone know of anything??....
If not I may just start one myself. Would people be interested??.....
thanks for reading :-)
I live in Medway, Kent.
Is it me or am I getting mixed messages
