andsome Posted October 27, 2004 Report Share Posted October 27, 2004 Congratulations. The affection you have for grandchildren is completely different to that which you have for your own kids. Your own kids, no matter what you think of them are always a liability, but the grandkids can be handed back when you get tired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I have no Grandchildren of my own yet (I live in hope) I have been adopted by my youngest son's girlfriends daughter, she calls me Granddad, she's only six years old and she is a joy providing I keep my industrial ear defenders on while she is in the house. :lol: :thumbup: :rockon: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
