Well, personally I would rather have a younger outlook on life than feel like a crabby old woman.

I don't have children but don't think I am excluded from anything on GN. Of course there are some subjects I don't join in with but the things discussed are not limited to those affecting grandparents.

Whoops – inaccurate with two cs.

I think Silver Surfer is horribly patronising as well as inacurate. Why do you think that it"respects individuality" (I'm not sure what that means) but Gransnet doesn't? By the way, why do old women, in particular but some old men too, announce that they feel so much younger mentally as if this is something praiseworthy? Seems bizarre to me and, interestingly, they are often the ones with the most rigid and fixed viewpoints.

sky this is a forum for grandparents and I like being a gran, perhaps you would be more comfortable on a different type of forum?

I still feel 30ish too smile

As a single person [I do have a grandniece who is a cutey pie ]I don't like the word Gransnet as feel it is not all encompassing & we should be respected for our individauality as people not to focus on our age often causing the most concern. I suppose this is nit picking but I still feel mentally I am in my 30s ??!! Silver surfer is more fun.
