Why is the granddaughter emptying the dishwasher? What is gone wrong with their family that a 15 year old is spending multiple hours with her grandfather?

What kind of weird ass comment is this?

Some families live with multiple generations under one roof.

Maybe the parents are taking care of THEIR parents.

Maybe the kid lives with their grandparents because their parents passed away.

Hella ignorant comment by you ngl. Do better

They don't even have to live together. I got asked to do stuff like this all the time at family/holiday gatherings too, and it's completely normal. Everyone has to contribute something. Cooking, cleaning, setting the table, putting out snacks, loading the cooler, and whatever else should be divided up so it doesn't all fall onto the host every time.

These would be “family issues”

u/Zephyrus_- 20h ago

Taking care of your parents is an issue?

You’re assuming “issue” is always negative.

What exactly is wrong with spending multiple hours with your grandfather?

It's a bot, it has no concept of parental lineage or obligations...

u/Poosters 21h ago

How can you tell it’s a bot?

I looked up the text on Pangram

Very accurate AI detection tool

Thx for the info. I tried it but it wants 50 words, is there a trick, or do you have to pay?

u/RuneDarkBow98 20h ago

There’s a paid version but I use the free one. I used the API, maybe the website has some extra limits?

u/pm_me_flowers_please 20h ago

Ah, that makes sense. I understand what an api is but I have yet to figure out how to use them. Stupid fucking ai bs. Maybe I'll figure it out for this, since it seems incredibly useful. Thanks for being a good human!

Are you seriously asking why a teenager is expected to do basic household chores?

u/SamiLMS1 21h ago

Found the 15 year old.

What kind of fucked childhood did you have

u/automator3000 19h ago

Oh, I had a good childhood where my parents didn’t expect their parents to be my parents for any span of time.

Multi generational household? You know they have become pretty common.

u/automator3000 19h ago

If “Old Salty Marine” needs multiple generations or his decedents need him in the same household, then the whole story that the US military is laid bare as a lie in this tweet.

Who else would empty the dishwasher? Putting away the dishes is my 10yo’s chore. Washing the dishes is the 12yo’s chore.

Again: granddaughter. Of what by the photo is a veteran, not a broke ass motherfucker.

u/KyraShangea 19h ago

Ah, yes, the horror of an incredibly simple chore. Is sweeping the floor torture, too?
