10 youngest grandparents in the world

Grandparents are usually associated with wrinkles, gray hair and great life experiences. They tell us what life was like then, in their time, and lament how much the world has changed over the years. And this is normal, because by the time the children have their own children, the parents are already old.

But sometimes children are born at an early age, and they give you grandchildren, also not intending to grow up especially. This can lead to the fact that the grandson will still have time to drink beer with grandpa, and the granddaughter will lie with her grandmother on the beach and chat about men, and no one will even think that there are two generations between them.

We present you 10 famous and ordinary people who became grandparents early.

6. Shem Davis, 29

Shem became a grandfather at the age of 29, when his daughter Tia was 14. The girl gave birth to a daughter in 2011. Shem became a parent just like his daughter, at the age of 14.

7. Unknown criminal, 27 years old

In 2014, the UK's youngest grandfather became a murderer in prison. The man's identity is being kept under wraps to protect his underage daughter. The man became a father at the age of 14, and his daughter followed in his footsteps and gave birth at 13. The immature grandfather has been in prison since his daughter was two years old. He stabbed a bystander to a robbery with a knife.

8. Tam Gallagher, 27

Tam Gallagher is known as Scotland's youngest grandfather. He received this title at the age of 27. His granddaughter was given to him by his adopted daughter Cheryl, who was 19 years old. Yes, yes, Tam is only eight years older than her. He met his wife, Yvonne Tam, when he was 19 and she was 33. Her daughter Cheryl became his adoptive. When Tam found out that he would become a grandfather, he was very happy. He likes to watch the baby grow before his eyes.

9. Rifka Stanescu, 23

Romanian Rifka Stanescu ran away from her family at the age of 11 after entering into an arranged marriage, which was planned by her parents when the girl was only two years old. She ran away from her 13-year-old husband some time after her marriage. At 12, she gave birth to a daughter, who at 11, like her mother, gave birth to a son. So at the age of 23, Rifka became a grandmother.

10. Mum-Zi, 17 years old

This story took place in the 19th century, and it remains a mystery whether this is legend or fact. Mum-Zi was from the island of Calabar, located in Nigeria. She became a mother at the age of eight in 1884. Then her daughter gave birth at the age of nine, so Mum-Zi became a grandmother at 17. At that age, we still do not even have the right to vote, buy alcohol and cigarettes. Of course, the story of Mum-Zi sounds simply incredible, but in some parts of the world it is considered the norm to get married at an early age and have children. Unfortunately, there were cases when children gave birth even at the age of five.

Whatever you meet in this life - both parents who are still children themselves, and grandparents who do not have their own children yet, but already have grandchildren. Maybe this is contrary to social principles, but how great it is when you have young parents with whom you can live a long life next to each other, and even their parents, no less beloved and so needed.
