Is Oklahoma Becoming a Granny State?


Over the past few decades, grandparents have more and more filled in for absent parents, incarcerated parents, and parents with an addiction. They have also been called upon to pay for life's extras, provide babysitting, etc. Today 8% of all children in the United States live with grandparents which is the largest number in 40 years.
