I’m not gloating. I am merely saying that posters claiming it’s not a big deal or it doesn’t matter or who cares are just wrong. It’s cool being a young grandparent. It just is. It doesn’t mean it’s the only thing that’s cool, but it definitely is one of the cool things.
This thread is not about you. Narcissist.
No, the thread is not about me. But it’s also not about bullshit from people who say that being a young grandparent isn’t a cool thing simply because they don’t have the luxury of being one themselves.
NP. You don't seem to understand that most people have little to know power over whether or when they become a grandparents. Many families struggle with infertility that results in delayed kids or no kids at all. Others have financial difficulties. Other people don't find partners until later. Medical problems, etc.
I am glad you like being a young grandparents. The entire premise of the thread is that OP would like to be a young grandparent but it's not going to happen. This thread is about people who CAN'T be young grandparents even if they would like to. In that context, gloating about how great it is, is selfish and rude.
Meh. I’m just tired of all the bullshit threads. You have this one and the countless threads from ladies having babies who insist that that’s the better way to go than having babies when they’re young even though it just isn’t biologically, mentally, or in any other way. It’s women in the DMV making bad decisions and then trying to justify it to themselves and others.

Brunch granny is always annoying.
Ha, yes. I refrained from digressing to she is no doubt one of the impossible MILs we hear so much about, but thinks she's all that instead.

Hey just ignore that asshat, being a young grandmother is cool, you and I both know it, and finding opportunities to insult random people on the internet is totally not cool. The PP you are responding to thinks they are in charge of this topic for some reason, but they are not.
Also, keep in mind, pretty much 99% of those on DCUM cannot possibly know what it's like to be a young grandparent because the demographic here doesn't skew that way, mostly. So to them you and I are obviously wrong since they are so right about everything. Who cares?
How do you not get that this thread is about making the older grandparent feel better, not add to their unhappiness? Sheez.

No one was saying that, crazy person. They were only trying to make the OP feel better that they can still be involved in their 70s. You truly are a horrible person.

At least I’m an honest one. So many dishonest responses on this thread.

I feel bad that my mom will be an old grandmother if she ever even becomes one, but I just can't get pregnant. It's not always a choice.

You can't control when or whether your kids have kids, but you can put yourself in the best position to be the grandparent you want to be by getting as active as you can. Focus on yoga and strength training.
Ugh why do that to them?

Being a grandparent is only enjoyable IMO if you aren't being asked to become the primary caregiver of small children and they aren't in a dire situation. So if that's 70 vs 60 I'm ok with that
