1.
For starters, it's like having an extra parent.
2.
Except they're so much more fun!
3.
They'll never shy away from spoiling you and making you feel special.
4.
Like, they'll give you gifts even when you don't deserve them.
5.
They would literally do anything for you.
6.
Grandparents tend to give in a lot quicker than parents do.
7.
They give the BEST advice, cause they've been through some shit.
8.
Except the one where they're like, "when I was your age, I walked 20km, climbed two mountains and rode an elephant to get to school."
9.
Teaching them how to use technology is one of the most rewarding things.
10.
Grandparents don't have to really ~parent~ you like your mum and dad do, so it's like having a super wise and fun old sibling.
11.
And you get to listen to hilarious and embarrassing stories about your parents and the things they got up to growing up.
12.
They are often the voice of reason in family arguments.
13.
And they'll stick up for you when talking to your parents.
14.
You can always count on them to be 100% honest with you.
15.
Plus their reactions to "young people these days" is always so funny.
16.
They'll never let you leave the house without a jacket, JUST in case you feel cold.
17.
Grandma's cooking is second to none, because of her secret ingredient: love.
18.
And she will always make sure you've eaten enough.
19.
You'll get that tough love from grandparents that you don't realise you need.
20.
They're so inspiring because they don't give a shit what other people think.
21.
And honestly, there's nothing quite like the unconditional love you get from a grandparent.
