This is just for grandparents, bragging about grand kids.
Granddaughter 1 just finished her first year at college. She is in the nursing program, and successfully handled a kick-ass Anatomy & Physiology course that was about 10 times harder than the one I took at the same school many decades ago.
Granddaughter 2 is about to graduate from high school in California. That will be be two granddaughters who made it through high school unpregnant, unarrested, and unaddicted. Yeah!!!
Grandson is about to make it through 7th grade, a tough year. I'm proud of all of them. Things are looking bright right now.
Nice! My spawn have not as yet provided us any grandchildren. :(

My advice: skip kids and go straight to grand kids.

Excellent! :D
I don't have grandchildren yet. :sad sigh:
I have no grandchildren. My bloodline is kaput. I do have an unofficial great-great grandchild by way of convoluted marriage details.. The year and a half old one who visits my house is a cute little demon who is most annoying. He needs constant survailance else he will destroy anything that happens to cross his path. The destruction I can manage to forgive, but I am fearful that he will get himself injured with all that hyper-activity.

I went to visit an old school friend back in the '80s when my eldest son was two. He had a huge house (both he and his wife have doctorates in electrical engineering). The living room was large enough that the grand piano was [points over
there]. Didn't impose on the room at all. He had pretty cutting edge electret stereo speakers (driven by a truly expensive tube amplifier setup)
sitting on cinder blocks. :o I lived in terror that my hyperactive son was going to tip one of them over. They were upset enough when his wife set my son up with a coloring book on the fireplace hearth and he wrote all over the bricks! :-[
