Family is a cornerstone of Georgian culture, and the importance of strong family bonds cannot be overstated. Georgian families are typically close-knit, and extended family members often live together or in close proximity. Respect for elders and the concept of filial piety are deeply ingrained in Georgian society.

In Georgia, it is common for grandparents to play an active role in raising their grandchildren. Grandparents are highly respected and often sought for advice and guidance. This intergenerational connection is a significant aspect of Georgian family life.
