Slazenger Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 (edited) All four of my grandparents have passed away. Mom's Side: Grandpa and Grandma (or Gram) Dad's Side: PopPop and Nana I'm a late addition to my family. Nana was the oldest -- we were 87 years apart. Grandpa was the youngest -- we were 79 years apart. So yep. That's right. Learn a little bit about Slazzy. I'm 19, my parents are 65 and 61, I have three siblings ages 39, 37, 36. I'm the mistake (or afterthought...as they say) and was raised kinda differently, having siblings old enough to be my parents. It was fun and I wouldn't trade it in for anything else.

Wingless Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 It's pretty much always been grandma or grandpa, though everyone is approaching THAT age. I have a wide range of relatives ranging from Japanese to Irish ancestry, but we never really bothered with pronouns in native tongues.

Blitzkrieg Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Never met either of my grandfathers. Grandma's on both my moms side, and my dads side are just called Grandma. (original right?) Im in a similar situation as Slaz, with my brother being 16 years older than me and my sister......25 years older than me. (im 17) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
