Newbornbairn Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 As a proud grandfather to two boys aged 5 & 6 and a girl aged 3, I take my responsibilities seriously and ensure they get taught the correct things in life. This is to counteract all the inclusivity shite and non-gender specific role-modelling they get fed at playgroups and school. So far my proudest moment was when the headmistress cornered the parents and told them to stop telling the boys that "Ladies are terrible drivers". Whilst their parents buy the kids ironing boards and toy hoovers, I buy them drum kits, toy guns and crossbows whilst telling them cleaning, cooking etc is "Women's work". This doesn't go down too well with the daughter in law. Obviously they have Falkirk strips and they've been to games where they learned "lots" of new words. Any other gems of wisdom I should be passing on? Do any other P&Bers have grandkids? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solidify your cleaning and cooking claims by presenting the science that women are more neurotic than men; guns and crossbows by the history of the military draft. As such, boys should be dressed in this: And girls this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chomp my root Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Not a grandad yet but its probably not that far away. Grand kids will most likely live thousands of miles away from me (thankfully, at least until they're about 30 ). Simple answer is how to open a tin without a pull off ring pull but as an outdoorsy kind of a cat, I'll be getting them out up the hills or at least into local woods (I know, I know) to learn how to camp (I know, I know).

Maybe because my crew are still in their mid-late teens but I have no desire to be a grandfather. I love(d) parenting but I have had my fill of shitey nappies and weans who can't use a knife and fork and have no desire to deal with either any time soon.
