This theory is scientists found confirmation and some still quite backward tribes of Africa. But it is still impossible to establish the time of appearance of grandmothers. When it was determined that it is not always grandmother was a real boon for the tribe. They helped only in the case that remained in good memory and intellectual abilities, to be able to keep track of the kids and teach them everything.
