Gotta love grandparents 🤣🤦🏽‍♀️

My grandpa hasn’t seen me or my son since he was born (in March) due to Covid 😕 so today he decided to stop by! Well we were catching up on things and I said something about my son had started teething and this is how the convo went 🤣

Me: yeah he’s started teething so that’s a struggle and I feel so bad for him.

G: oh poor guy, do you guys have anything for him?

Me: yes we’ve been using the infant Tylenol which seems to help a lot, along with his teethers.

G: hmm...wonder if there’s anything natural you could use instead of that?

Me: oh I’m not sure but I should definitely look into that!

G: *very serious* yeah, when I was a baby my parents ,along with many others, used whiskey on our gums. It helped a lot. But only on the gums. (Like that made it more okay🤣)

Me: (starts laughing) oh yeah I’ve heard that’s what everyone had to do back then and some probably still do! Tylenol seems to work fine for him though.

G: yeah. I just don’t trust those medications they make for babies

Whole time I’m here in my head like “I’m sure that is the exact reason why Tylenol was invented grandpa, they realized whiskey isn’t good for babies”. This is a prime example of why the younger generation and the older generation clash so much😅 love my grandpa though! we just laughed it off because I was not about to say that was a better idea than tylenol but didn’t wanna hurt his feelings either. 😂
