abstract
The aim of this article is to describe the social aspects that affect performing the role of grandmother. The historical-sociological approach was chosen to research this topic. It uses knowledge of previous situations and processes to an in-depth understanding of the contemporary situation. Interviews realized with eight grandmothers of children aged 6–8 were analyzed. The article presents the grandmothers’ reflection of the social framework for performing the grandmother’s role. In grandmothers’ opinions, this framework has a significant impact on the possibilities of performing a grandmother’s role. Using the historical-sociological approach also allowed us to identify changes in the framework during the last decades. These changes are explained on examples of the last three generations of grandmothers in the text.
