'Grandfamilies' spotlights grandparents stepping in to raise children

More than 2.5 million children across the U.S. live in households where grandparents have taken on the role of primary caregiver. But many grandparents face challenges navigating custody issues and accessing the resources and support they need. Geoff Bennett discussed these families with Donna Butts, author of "Grandfamilies: Stories of Children and the Loving Relatives Who Raise Them."
