Autocorrect fail.

How the hell do you come to such a weirdass conclusion? The only information is that 1) the baby is coming out in 7 months time, and 2) OP is 18 years old. The age of OP's new grandmother is irrelevant at this point. It should be assumed that she is below 18 (due to the offence), and within high school age of between 14 and 18.

Hey "yous_an_idiot." YOU are an idiot. The grandfather has impregnated his high school girlfriend. She will give birth in seven months to OP's grandfather's child, which would make the female child of her grandfather her infant aunt. My guess is that OP is 17-18 years old. Before you go off telling people they're idiots, learn basic math.

i second wordgirl

math fail. i'd point out the irony of your username, but that would be redundant. oops! too late.

It wasn't a math fail, just someone operating under different assumptions. I read it the same way as #19 at first and came to the same conclusion until I read some comments. For clarification: I'm pretty sure we were both thinking that the original poster was well into adulthood (age 35 to 36), thus, assuming an 18 year difference in parentage for two generations, a 36+18+18 = 72 year old grandfather. The girl in highschool would've been seventeen years and five months old, expressing plans to marry the grandfather (with the grandfather supposedly divorcing the grandmother). Thus, the highschool student would have become the original poster's aunt, eighteen years younger. Since nothing was set in stone with the original poster's message (pregnancy / poster's age), I was able to see it this way. However, most of the comments have immediately latched onto the pregnancy idea, and that seems much more likely (and less interesting to me, but eh). I suppose #19 should've clarified a bit since he was going against the common assumption, and maybe not having come off as insulting would've helped.

If the girl marrys the grandfather she wouldnt become the OP's Aunt... Pregnancy is the only thing that makes sense with the words the OP used.

Ah. My bad, you are correct. I guess a newborn becoming the original poster's half aunt is the only explanation. The highschool girl would be a "stepgrandmother," I suppose, if she were married to the grandfather.

marrying the grandad wouldn't make the highschooler the aunt it would make her the grandma :/

She means the person he was cheating with is pregnant....

not really true, it happens in Europe too. But seriously, women are so ****** up. why would you want to have a relationship with someone who is 3 times your age?

maybe she *really* needed to pass?

In some countries, this is the norm. So STFU

So... you're saying the grandfather is the victim, eh?

#23 I completely agree with this, I would imagine that it is OPs grandmother that really should be FMLing right now. #25 no, enough4 is saying that the GRANDMOTHER is the victim. I should have thought that was perfectly clear.

Please read more carefully before telling someone they're wrong. "Unless you're attempting to re-center the victim in this story as you, and not your grandfather." Notice that it says grandFATHER, not grandmother. So 23 is, in fact, saying that the grandfather is the victim. You just corrected someone who was already correct. Pay attention.

I actually did mean to say "grandfather," but I should have elaborated more on "victim." Not a victim in the sense that he doesn't deserve his fate, but rather a victim in the "FML" sense. A victim of his own personal behavior who requires no sympathy, but if you were sitting in that cell, you'd say "FML," too. In other words, which was my original point that remysgal picked up on, the order of people who have actual cause to claim "FML" in this scenario are as follows: 1. Grandfather 2. Grandmother 3. Pregnant teen 4. Pregnant teen's parents 5. OP's parent who is the child of the grandfather 6. Baby to be (may never find out the truth) 7. School superintendent .. .. and then waaaay down near the bottom: OP. Yeah, it sucks to have your gramps sent to jail. It doesn't make YOUR life ******. Also who cares that OP will have a new aunt younger than her? I have an aunt 3 years younger than me when my grandfather divorced my grandmother and remarried and had a second set of kids. You know who's life was ****** from that development? Not mine. Again, attempting to make OP the center of our sympathies. No dice.

I think it's a normal reaction for her to call her grandmother in a situation like this. And it probably is relevant to the story, because that's probably how she found out about details like the baby coming in 7 months, etc. You don't always get accurate news from the news channel so I think it's extremely appropriate to be in touch with your family in a situation like this.

Hey the OP may not be the victim, but it still sucks for her

No, its sad. But its not about her. She doesn't get to cry about it.

maybe its not about her but when you look at the course of events, it can get overwhelming and knowing that it can be overwhelming can lead her to CRY. no, she's not the victim, we know that but its still a big change in her life and that can upset anyone. I know that I would pretty damn upset if that happened to me, and I would most certainly feel terrible for my grandmother. The OP can cry if she wants to.

So... you shouldn't get upset when bad things happen to your family members? Of course it affects her if she was close with her grandparents, or at least grandmother, which she seems to be. Not as much as it does her grandparents, obviously, but it still affects her. The whole dynamics of the family will have changed.

This is easy for you to say idiot. She's practically losing a grandfather who she trusted for the past 18 years of her life and this situation is in her immediate family, meaning she'll live with it forever. I bet it's not like this in your family, so before you actually know how something like this feels, you cannot say that she can't cry over it. Yes, the grandmother is a victim too. The grandfather is NOT a victim. He's an adult, and he knew well what he was doing. As for the teenage girl, I'm not going to make an assumption either way, but she is still a minor and it was the grandfather's responsibility to say "no, we can't do this" etc. F the life of anyone in this family who has to live with this now.

I like the cut of ManUpFucker's jib, and as you can see in my posts above, I agree wholeheartedly with the sentiments expressed, but I do have to say that OP does in fact "get to cry about it". She even gets to call up her grandmother crying. But she does not get to then come here and try and spin it so that, because she's crying and will have a new baby aunt, she's the primary victim and the one whose life is ******. There are dozens and dozens of people affected far greater from this.

I was thinking the exact same thing. Sure it sucks and yea I would be crying about it, but what right does she have to be spreading her grandmother's marital problems around online. I would be horrified if I were the grandma. I think Op needs to learn when to keep her mouth shut. This is not about you honey, you are involved merely because you are related to them. This is your grandmother's horrible tragedy, and the young girl's and most of all the child. And your grandfather. His choice, his life. He made the wrong one.

Its not like she named her Grandma by name or anything, no one knows who it is unless they already knew before they read this. and although the OP isnt directly involved in this it still definatley ***** with her life knowing that her Granddaddy is a pedobear, thats some pretty ****** up stuff.
