The maternal grandmother has always played a privileged role in the family. She is the most loved figure of the family and the image that remains deep in your heart and memory.
The psychological role of the maternal grandmother in the family
As for the grandchildren's opinion, most of them agree to perceive a greater family and emotional continuity with the part of the mother's side. And as for the girls, a 360-degree positive opinion prevails about her mother, who not only plays a role of help, but is perceived as a wise adviser. The same grandchildren tend to recognize maternal grandmothers in an educational role and are always the first to return in case of mother's absence. Not to mention the influence of the maternal grandmother on a psychological level in the daughter's educational approach.
The most satisfied grandmothers, and consequently the most positive, are those who do not completely replace the parental figure. According to some research, the latter would suffer more from health disorders and depression, having to take on an apparently excessive responsibility.
Their role is different and must be respected. The same applies to mothers who separate and find themselves forced to live with "grandmothers/mothers", triggering insidious mechanisms. For example, a lower participation in the child's meals and a general decrease in the warmth shown to the children. The tendency, in these cases, is to rely on the mother / grandmother to the detriment of the family balance and the health of all the figures involved.
A very important period for the newborn, during which the grandmother helps her daughter to enter the role of parent. But also a crucial transition phase in which the grandmother acts as a support and, if necessary, as a temporary alternative for the mother. In fact, it also helps to mitigate the negative effects of a possible maternal coldness, often associated with postpartum depression, or a current compromised state of health. Provided that this coldness is not connected with an unconscious block transmitted from mother to daughter
Maternal grandmother genetically influences future generations
According to research, the maternal grandmother is fundamental for the transmission of information and genetic programs.
According to studies, it turns out that when she was pregnant with your mother, the fetus has already formed the "oocytes". And from these oocytes, the two million eggs that your mother will have in her lifetime are ready to be released. One of these eggs is named after you. So this egg carries the grandmother's information. What information are you referring to? For everything that the grandmother lived, she felt and how she lived. If it was the right time to have children, if the pregnancy was wanted, if she felt protected by her husband, what were their loves, her identity conflicts, etc. […] All this and much more is the information that is implanted in every cell of the fetus. So you bring information about your grandmother when she was pregnant with your mother. Have you ever heard that genetics sometimes skip a generation? Because it is what it is. The egg you carry carries your maternal grandmother's information.
Why grandmother and not grandfather?
Because the grandmother lays the egg and the grandfather lays the sperm. And the egg, in addition to genetic information, carries mitochondrial information, which is the cell membrane. While the grandfather, the mitochondrial information is in the tail of the sperm, and as you know at the time of fertilization, the tail remains outside. In the mitochondrion is where you stored the information in the program levels that are inherited. For experts it is a great discovery.
"As they became aware of the lives of many of them, my fear was theirs. And I understood her life, I honored her, and magically I could feel free of many things that were holding me back from moving forward. It was like a stagnant energy that didn't flow. And you, what do you know about your maternal grandmother?", they concluded.
