"I have not seen my grandson since august 7th of this year"
"AUGUST 7TH"
Ma'am thats like nothing. It took you less than two months for you to go from the "arguing with your relatives" stage to the "try to pass a state and/or federal law over it" stage? What the fuck?
Oh neat I’m sure this wouldn’t end up harming a lot of lgbtq families specifically! Plenty of boomers already try to abuse existing grandparents rights laws so this would make them very happy.
Oh no
Between this and the pro-homeschooling/anti-sex ed, scared to leave their kids alone with the doctor stuff, I feel like the model for conservative parenthood is Josef Fritzl
I hate how there are still people on Twitter with good takes
Fox News has been pushing a narrative about "no contact adult children" trend for at least a year. In the link below, December 2025, Fox News blames Oprah Winfrey for inventing estrangement as if anyone under 50 watches Oprah.

the boomer id is an inescapable pull towards shooting up the school that their estranged children send their kids to
Jokes on my conservative parents, I refused to have kids in part because I wanted to deny them grandkids. Can't make me show you grandkids I don't have 
coffin dodger
Conservatives are cancer. They need to be dealt with as such.
The sooner we accept that there can be no peaceful solution to conservatism, the sooner we can finish Sherman's work and finally have peace.
Its looking like a nasty one folks. Actual critical issues are forecast to be pushed back another 25-50 years. Back to you, Alaskaball.
A ploy by Big Lawyer to sell more custody cases
If you want more context for the estranged parents subculture https://issendai.com/psychology/estrangement/
I dont agree with the author's ableist use of the term "narcissist" but they do a good job of summarizing whats going on with estranged parents groups
In general id recommend reading The Missing Missing Reasons to anyone wanting to understand why they cant get through to someone, or why it feels like you "cant" understand why someone has an issue with you (obviously not always applicable but a lot things in that link are good to do self crit on even if you aren't at estranged parent level bad)
My petty daughter called me selfish because my F-150 gets 3 mpg and IDGAF if my grandson has clean air to breathe and clear water to drink. My petty daughter called me a fascist because I said the people getting kidnapped and shot by ICE deserved it. My petty daughter called me a cultist because I go to made up Grande Olde Paedophile mid-term conventions for Great Leader. My petty daughter called me evil because I saw the US bomb a girls' school in Iran and I cheered and made fun of her when she cried.
There's probably more to that story besides the daughter being "petty".
A friend had a legitimate argument with his mom about whether or not she had “grandparental rights” to his kid.
Trying to make the next culture the people who complete a game entirely (100%ers) versus the people who just beat the main story component (3%ers). Zero-fucking traction and I tried meeting up with some fellow 3%ers and that didn't work out at all either.
Bringing back patria potestas.
Gotta do something to make sure those boomers whose kids never talk to them still get out and vote.
