Woman insists 26-year-old son should let her pick her own Grandma name: 'You won't really be able to control it'

Grandparent names vary across the world, but that shouldn't matter much to the grandkids who love spending time with their grammy and grandpa. All that should really matter is being with the ones you love… but of course, it's never that simple.

Having your first grandkid is a major milestone for a lot of parents. It's a sign that they've raised their own children into adulthood, and have prepared them for a successful life. That kid probably has a stable job, and they may even be married, and they get to break the news that they're now expecting a baby. This is extremely exciting news for most grandparents! Soon they'll have a little baby to hang out with and spoil with presents and hugs.

In this family, there's a bit of consternation about the prospect of names, though. What should the kids call their grandparents? Maybe you've already planned out what your grandkiddos will call you, but the decision can sometimes spark an argument between the generations.

Keep reading to check out this person's tale of the grandma-naming gone wrong. Then, read about the schoolkids who were wrongfully punished by their teachers, meaning their parents had to step in and make things right.

This person has a good point...

The moniker will also be decided between the grandparents and grandkid once the child is old enough to have a say in the matter.
