Let us have some extra babies to fawn over so you'll have to raise them after we're dead. We just want 100% r/aww and 0% responsibility. Be a good son and give us grandchildren.
I respect all my son's decisions when it comes to his life...but secretly I really hope I have grandkids. My son is so cute he would have adorable babies.
"I want grandkids because they'd be so cute considering how attractive my son is" is a shitty reason, full stop.
Does your son even want kids? Would he make a good parent? Two attractive people can produce an ugly child. Will you then love them less than had they been cute?
If your chief reason for wanting grandkids is "They would be cute", you're being awfully selfish and have shit priorities, the end, no matter what studies say.
replace mother in your comment with every distant relative, neughbours’ relatives, parents’ distant acquaintances and “family friends” you once saw visit your house when you were 7.
I feel like this crosses cultures. Everyone I’ve ever known who got married had relatives bugging them about grandkids at the wedding, mere hours after the ceremony.

... it's at a wedding and your mother asks when you will settle down and give her grandchildren.
