#8: Battle of the Grandmas
When two people get married, it can be a risky business melding their separate families together. Different backgrounds, belief systems, and opinions can collide when two separate families are forced to spend time together, but most make it work to keep the peace. This Twitter user experienced a tense exchange between her two grandmas that made her realize how different they truly were from each other.
One day Jennifer listened in on a conversation between her two grandmothers about having children. Her grandma on her dad’s side felt that it was women’s purpose on Earth to have kids. Her grandma on her mom’s side had a completely different view. She felt that every woman has a right to choose how many kids they want to have, even if it is their “purpose.” Pretty progressive, Grandma!
