Twitter Users Share Words of Wisdom (and More) From Their Grandmothers

Who’s heard their grandma or dad say this before? “You should eat something, you’re too skinny- the skinny ones are easier to kidnap!” This is such a parent thing to say! This grandma said this to her grandson, and she probably said it to her son when he was young! That’s the sort of thing that never changes.

It’s a funny thing to say, for sure, but when you think about it, it’s a compliment. I know a number of girls (and guys) who’d love to have someone say that to them! Grandmas are always worried about their grandkids not eating enough, as if their life’s purpose is to feed their families.
