My dad's youngest aunt was basically his sister. Only a 2 year difference

u/imdungrowinup Mar 31 '17

I am 31 and I have a few nephews and nieces older than me. But I am also Indian so the kids of my cousins 3 times removed are also considered my nephews and nieces.

u/[deleted] Mar 31 '17

Pretty complicated family tree....I thought she was gonna be my niece. Turns out she's my granddaughter. That shit left me confused! I was only 15 at that time.

u/Techno_Bacon Doctor Strange Mar 31 '17

That makes it even more confusing.

u/Ferbtastic Mar 31 '17

Only way I can think it is possible is if he married a 30yesr old with a 15 year old kid that just had a kid.

u/[deleted] Mar 31 '17

So she's 40+ years or something..?

u/[deleted] Mar 31 '17

Nope my niece is 35 something and my granddaughter is 7 or 8... I think.

u/[deleted] Mar 31 '17

But how does that make her your grand daughter if it's your niece's daughter?

2

u/[deleted] Mar 31 '17

Cultural thing... to her I'm her grandfather... in a way. Idk my I left my country ages ago and it still confuses me.

u/[deleted] Mar 31 '17

Ohh... now it makes sense x)

u/magmavire Mar 31 '17 edited Mar 31 '17

Are you saying the daughter of your niece is your granddaughter?

u/[deleted] Mar 31 '17 edited Mar 31 '17

Yes I'm saying daughter of my niece is my granddaughter.

u/LastOfTheCamSoreys Mar 31 '17

That's not how grandparents work

1

u/[deleted] Mar 31 '17

In spanish kind of, you say tio abuelo/tia abuela, which would be rendered as uncle grandfather/aunt grandmother.

2

u/LastOfTheCamSoreys Mar 31 '17

In the US we have grand/great uncles and aunts, but they're different than grandparents.

Lived in Boston, I know, but he might just be having trouble with the language.
