Gams, Nanna and Meemaw Stop Calling Her Grandma!


New York, NY (PRWEB) April 19, 2013

With kids come more kids grandchildren! When many people think of their Nonna, they think of a sweet old lady of 60 or 70 years old with wrinkles and graying hair; but with historically high teen birth rates in the United States, the average age of grandmothers is on a huge decline. Just check out MTVs reality show 16 and Pregnant where most of the grandmothers are in their 30s and 40s. When considering Mothers Day gifts for grandma this year, knitting needles may not be the best choice.


Generations United reported that in 2012, 30% of children below the age of five with working mothers were cared for on a regularly by a grandparent. With 7.8 million children in the US living in a household with grandparents, many American grandmothers have begun to take on more of a parental role to their grandbabies.


AARP reports the average age of a first time grandparent in the US at a mere 47 years old. Celeb grandma Kris Jenner (mother to Kim Kardashian and grandmother to two grandchildren) first became a grandmother at 53, and anyone can bet she isn't being called Grandma. Young grandmothers are finding alternatives to the name often associated with a sweet old lady knitting Christmas sweaters. Gamma, G-Ma and Mammy are all top nicknames, and hot grandma Goldie Hawn goes by Gogo.


With grandmothers being so close to their grandchildren, Mothers Day has become a holiday that is celebrated with all generations of mothers. Time spent together tops most moms and grandmothers wish lists for the special holiday, but sometimes tangible gifts are a great way to show appreciation when family lives far away. OverstockJeweler.com specializes in beautiful sterling silver jewelry gifts that wont break the bank.
