Young Grandmothers

Without Prejudice

I am a young Grandmother, I was 37 when my second oldest daughter made me one. As soon as one man I found out my impending state of not happy grandmother, he immediately started calling me Granny. And as soon as my 1st grandchild was born and could speak he called me Nana. I am sure my daughter did this deliberately.

I had no frame of reference for being a grand mother that young. In fact I was at first horrified and so was my husband (Now ex husband ) He told someone recently after years that the final nail in the coffin of our marriage was his becoming a Grand father at 43, Bollocks to that I say. That marriage didn't need a nail in it, more like that metaphorical coffin needed a decent burial.
