Yes it is. There are alot of reason why some children see their grandparents more than parent. Supportive grandparents often play a big role in the life of their grandchildren. I know many people who will say their grandparents were a big influence for good in their life. A child or adult can never have too many people to love them.

Every family is unique. Your grandparents may have helped raise you, or you may be very close to them at this point in your life. At times children do not get along with their parents, so even if they do "see" them because they live with them, it is not really quality time. You say "real" parents, which leads me to believe you live with your grandparents or someone other than your real parents. Your situation may be very normal even if you are not seeing your parents as much. Only your heart can tell you the answer. Best wishes!

Well, I don't think any family, person, or thing is "normal". Yes, it is more common for kids to see their parents more than grandparents, but that doesn't mean it is normal. Nothing is normal. But to answer your question, it is more common for kids to see their own parents more, but some children grow up with their grandparents for multiple reasons.

Depends on your family. Lots of people were raised my their grandparents and their parents are nowhere in the picture. There is no real normal when it comes to families.

Grandparents are usually very loving :D, but there's no real norm when it comes to anything. I don't think it's "normal", but that's because of my lifestyle. Just do whatever fits your life the best and don't be swayed to stay with certain people more than others based off of people's opinions.

Some people are raised by their grandparents. It's fine to see them more than your parents.

Not usually, but grandparents are usually nicer to the grandchildren than their parents are. There is a reason for that. Grandparents and grandchildren share a common enemy.

In today's world, a family structure can be very different for many reasons. Many times, finances or other personal issues play a role. There is no normal or not normal...as long as there is a positive influence in your life..that's what counts.

I did when I was a kid. Especially more than my dad. He was always at work and I loved to hang out with my grandparents.

Just my opinion...
Typically no... but if they live close and your parents work alot... or you have a good relationship with them its fine. Grandparents basically give you whatever you want sooo its cool if we visit them more than the norm.
