<\/p>\nUnfortunately, I am not a kid that grew up with grandparents. Well, I had a very special relationship with my grandmother from my father\u2019s side, who used to keep me in her lap and feed me bread with milk and sugar. I really miss her. I really miss my grandfather from my mother\u2019s side. When he passed away, I never had a chance to say goodbye to him, and it hurts. My brother was literally raised by my grandmother, maybe that\u2019s why he laughs more than me. I mean, I don\u2019t really know, but that\u2019s what the research shows.<\/p>\n
Boston College has done the research recently where they studied more than 300 children and grandparents. What they saw was really interesting. A sudden boost in happiness and joy, and a sudden change in the room\u2019s atmosphere. Endorphin is produced at its finest and this makes sure that both of the parties don\u2019t fall into depression or sadness. This is why, according to this study, it is really important that kids grow up with grandparents. I guess grandma\u2019s food never gets old after all.<\/p>\n
Speaking of grandma\u2019s food, remember that time that I went through clinical death from meningitis? She saved my life. This is the other grandma, from my mother\u2019s side. She stayed up all night, cooking milk and rice and feeding me until I let out all of the infection. I was healed. I was wrong. Now that I\u2019m thinking about it I am the kid that grew up with grandparents. Then why am I depressed? Maybe that study isn\u2019t that correct after all.<\/p>\n

Share some of the great things you remember growing up. Like running through sprinklers, catching fireflies, or playing on the swings to the point where the poles came out of the ground. What do you remember? Let us know. Thanks.\/ Source:\u00a0Viralhatch<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Unfortunately, I am not a kid that grew up with grandparents.
