Grandparents aren’t always grumpy and hard to please. Sometimes they can be a source of fun in the family too.
The “Grandparent Effect”
We think you’re already familiar with this thing called the “Grandparent Effect,” in which once-stern parents exhibit extreme softness toward their grandkids. It’s a well-known occurrence that people who had harsher parenting as children frequently make fun of as a double standard.
Proven By Science
It’s interesting to note that research backs up this behavioral shift. According to studies, grandparents may even love their grandkids more than they do their own children. This may be because they enjoy the opportunity to relive the experience and can see the results of their parenting in their kids.
Grandpa’s Mishap
This story is a hilarious example of how grandparents may sometimes make funny mistakes too. Kelsea Bowersmith shared a clumsy moment between her father-in-law and her daughter.
Time To Sleep
The first-time grandfather is seen in the video getting ready to put his adorable little angel to bed.
Oops!
He carefully raises the child and gently lowers her onto the mattress when it’s time to place her in the crib. The grandfather doesn’t fully take into account the height of the crib when he leans over its railing.
He Dove Into The Crib
He eventually topples over, causing a hilarious sequence in which he tumbles into the crib headfirst. Even his phone falls out of his pocket and starts to flash a “help me” signal.
He Quickly Recovered
Despite the accident, the grandfather descends as softly as he can considering the small area. Even in this awkward situation, he shows his concern and love for his grandchild by taking care not to inadvertently hit her with any part of his body.
All Is Well
When the grandfather regains his calm, he remembers his responsibilities. Before he leaves the room, he makes sure the baby gets her bottle and is wrapped in a blanket.
