La Mamma della Mamma – Grandparent Culture
“My mum’s mum is always with me when my mum is not” goes the prize-winning song ‘La Mamma della Mamma’, from the Italian Zecchino d’Oro annual children’s song festival in 1998. Twelve years on, and these simple words ring truer than ever for millions of Italian children who are cared for daily by their grandparents.
