Question
Does a grandfather have an obligation of chinuch toward his grandchildren in all the mitzvot, or was the grandfather’s obligation of chinuch stated only with regard to Torah study? I would be glad to have sources.
Answer
Shalom u’vracha
There is no obligation of chinuch on a grandfather.
Aside from Torah study, about which it is stated in the Torah: "והודעתם לבניך ולבני בניך" (and you shall make them known to your children and your children’s children).
