WESTPORT, Conn., Aug. 18, 1998 -- Do you think because you were a good parent you'll automatically be a good grandparent? Well, hopefully you're right. But should you have questions or concerns about this new role, the MetLife Consumer Education Center has developed "Becoming a Grandparent," an educational brochure designed to refresh your memory about the basics of child rearing, and help you understand some of the difficulties you may encounter. Reviewed and approved by the Foundation for Grandparenting, "Becoming a Grandparent" advises you on how to make sure your child and grandchild know you're there for them without interfering with the upbringing process. It also prepares you for those delightful visits by providing helpful childproofing hints, and suggests how you can add to your grandchild's life by passing along family traditions and history. Of course, spoiling your grandchild is one of life's greatest joys! But giving something meaningful can be a challenge. That's why the brochure includes suggestions for contributing to your grandchild's education and financial well-being, and provides advice about establishing trust funds, willing property, and giving monetary gifts. So, if you're a grandparent or about to become one, why not get some helpful advice about the challenges and rewards that lie ahead. Call the MetLife Consumer Education Center, toll-free at 800-638-5433 to receive your free brochures. Made available as a public service, this information resource is part of the LIFE ADVICE® program, created to help people better understand and manage the major events in their lives. Every LIFE ADVICE® brochure has been written in conjunction with a nationally-recognized authority on each subject. Each one lists reference sources for additional information, and the information in many of the brochures can also be accessed on the Internet at http://www.lifeadvice.com.
