Types of Grandparents

By: Katie Stirling

There are many different types of grandparents. Some spoil their grandchildren while others aren’t the nicest. It depends how much time you spend with them and how involved they are in your life. Many people aren’t in contact with some of their grandparents, while others see them daily.

The first type is the nice grandparent. These are typically the grandmas. These grandmas spoil their grandchildren every time they see them. They buy them things, big or small, they give them money for food, shopping, or whatever they want to spend it on. They always make them food and sent it home with them every time they come over. They try to make you as happy as you can be.

The next type is the mean grandparent. These could be the grandpas, but also grandmas too. These grandparents still love their grandkids, but don’t show it very well. They might criticize them sometimes, but don’t realize it. These grandparents don’t buy you things very often and don’t give you food or anything.

Another type of grandparent is the one that always tries to teach you a lesson. They think they know what you’re thinking all the time, and even if they’re right it can get annoying. They pick out your mistakes and try to tell you how to fix them. They love you a lot, but get a little caught up in solving your problems.

These are just some types of grandparents. Of course, there are many more. Each grandparent is different and can be many types.
