Is there anyone here who grew up without knowing their grandparents?

Just one of the four. It hasn't impacted it because never did know him, but I feel like I really would have liked him.

My father's parents were long dead and gone before I was born, My mother's father died when I was 3 so I didn't know him as he lived out of state, My mother's mother lived out of state most of my life so I wasn't close to her, she seemed like an angry old bitch, always so negative especially the last year of her life.

I never knew my grandfather. He died when my father was 15. I guess it never impacted me directly, but mostly on the effect it had on my father, and so indirectly on me.

Three of my grandparents died before I was eight. One died when I was a mother myself. I never got to know any very much, other than family talking about them. My parents are now deceased.

i know both my grandparents on my mother's side but they died when i was a kid, my fathers parents died before i was bron

I grew up knowing all but one grandfather. It never bothered me until recently. (middle age) I wish I knew the health history.

i only knew one grandmother- the others are a mystery

yep... called fostering.


i have no clue didn't let it compound me.

Yes, no gparents and I don't think it had an impact.

I never knew either grandfather

Me

I never met my grandfather and no it didn't negatively effect me

I knew them but only saw them once a year, and my fathers' parents were much older and passed away when I was still a child. I sometimes wish we'd lived closer to all of them.
