Hands can't stop shaking

So if my dad is on the couch watching tv, his hands are almost still. But when he goes to pick up a fork, they shake like crazy.

I have this, or something similar. My mother does too. With me it only happens sometimes, my mom has it pretty much any time she tries to do something with her hands. They don't shake a lot but enough to make it hard to write or do something like decorating a cake or putting on mascara. It's strange but doesn't really seem to be getting worse. I never thought to get it checked.

My sister and Mom have the hand tremor thing. My grandfather had it to. They always had it. It happens when they're trying to do something with their hands. It gets worse with age. Nothing you can do about it.
