How is your relationship with you grandparents?
My father's mother is an alcoholic so I hardly talk to her. I've never met my grandfathers because they both died before I was born. And my other grandmother is like my second mother so our relationship is awesome. Sometimes I get upset because I'd love to at least have one of my grandfathers alive because they both seemed like such great people but life goes on. |

dad's side
grandma: she lives in china, the last time i saw her i was a baby grandpa: he died when i was like 2 years old mom's side grandma: she's not very pleasant  grandpa: he's pretty nice, but there's that language barrier i know this guy who's grandma is an alcoholic, he lives with her, for some reason his mom lives somewhere else...and his dad passed away when he was younger...his grandma isn't a nice lady...

dads side:
granny: umm, we don't hate each other.. i think i'm her favorite, though ;) grandpa: never met him.. he died before i was born. mom's side: granny: she's in a nursing home, but we frequently ( not always ) see her every Saturday... she's kinda boring =/ grandpa: he died when i was 6 =/ he was mean to me when i was little, so i don't know how i feel now... and they all speak chinese, so sometimes i don't know what they're talking about.. |

Dad's side:
- Grandma isn't doing very well; she has cancer. - Grandpa is totally awesome! We visit them in the summers. Mom's side: - Grandma acts like my 2nd mother, which gets very annoying. - Grandpa is getting old and is super funny and lazy. My favorite part is getting spoiled.

My mothers parents are Co-Signers on my house lol. I have a great relationship with them they live 2 1/2 hours away and I see them almost every month. My grandmother's mother is still alive as well, she will be 93 this year
My fathers parents are mexican and they have their favorite grandchildren and they are not my sister and I. We hardly see them and they live 5mins from us. Funny how things like that work. |

All of my grandparents have passed away.
I only met one of them, and he passed away when I was 8. He was very kind, and I loved visiting him. |

i was VERY close w/ all of my grandparents. scratch that, i still am, though my dad's father passed away 6 years ago. it was really hard because he was like everybody's friend, just the coolest dude you could ever meet. i don't think we've fully recovered, but i'm very lucky to have grown closer to my family after that happened, and i'm very grateful to have the family that i do.

Dad's side
Grandfather. He passed away before I was born. So...no comment. Grandmother. She's like 95...so there's really not that much we can talk about. But she says all the funniest things about her maid. (she needs help. And she lives in Hong Kong where many people hire maids). Mom's side Grandfather. Again, has passed away before my birth. Grandmother. I have a much better relationship with her than my other grandmother. Still, I don't really talk to her about much. =\ |
