Do you care about having grandchildren?

My two siblings and I(in our 30’s) gave our parents 10 grandchildren and they love it.

But I don’t feel grandparents of today are like the grandparents I grew up with. They could probably care less

HA!

NO HAIR DONT CARE!!!


but I LOVE my grand nieces and nephews,

sheeeeeet I love all children, and when I see

children laughing and happy it brings pure joy

to my heart.. but at the end of the day...

when it comes to existence on THIS plane..

Im ONE and DONE..

Children are for those who want and need a legacy here,

that notion does nothing for a real knigga!! but nevertheless...


GOD BLESS THE CHILDREN, and PROTECT THEM FROM THE DONKEY PARTY

AND THEIR WEIRDO AGENDAS!!

AMEN!!!

Damn, we're about the same age and both have two siblings but my parents are dead and none of us have children.

Even if I have children, in a sense it doesn't matter if you have grandchildren if you don't live to see them.

I assume they love the experience of being around their grandkids more than their existence / the concept? Do you think the same "love" would exist for greatgrandchildren if they could know they would exist but couldn't experience it?

Why do you think that is?

I understand loving being around your grandkids, especially if you're older since new life is the opposite of death.

Not sure why today's grandparents would be different from any other.

First of all, salute to yo my brotha. I’m glad you still doing ya thang after the unthinkable(your parents)

I’ve had this talk with my pops and we’ve both came to the same conclusion. Ain’t no love like the love from your kids. My kids and my sisters’ kids love their grandma and grandpa like no other.

My 2 oldest are double digits in age now and I haven’t been the best dad I could be but you couldn’t tell that to my kids. I think it’s that type of love received from the children that makes them love having grandkids. Now Great-grandchildren, they’re not even thinking about cuz they don’t plan to be around for that.

IMO, today’s grandparents are younger and busier. When I was growing up me and all the cousins would link at Big Momma house and play N64 and whatever else and it wasn’t like our parents were just dumping us on their parents either. They loved those moments.

But also, they were older and had “lived life” so they weren’t itching to “Travel” or just be “free from kids” like I see and hear so much from grandparents nowadays.
