Grandparents generally have more relaxed time to spend with their grandkids than they had with their children. It's a chance for grandparents to practice what they have learned about child rearing. Tom Corbett of Huntington Beach, Calif., for example, had never been patient before he went flying with his grandkids. "I forced it on myself so I don't become anxious or annoyed," says the computer-systems architect, 58. "I don't want to associate anything bad with the thrill of flying."
