I always find it interesting how some parents do this weird “don’t touch my daughter” but mix it with “give me grandkids!!”… like, you can’t have it both ways.
Nope, not at all. My parents berated me until I was 35 to “wait until you’re ready to have kids.”
Then they were like, why are you waiting to have grandkids?! You’ve been married for 5 years!!!

Throw stick! No take! Only throw!
These occur at different life stages for children
Teenager years, “Don’t touch my daughter.” / “Don’t impregnate anyone.”
Mid twenty and later, “Grandbabies please.”
Maybe they’re just really pro-adoption (not enough to do it themselves, though)

their daughter can have kids, but only in a mary and joseph kind of way
Not with that attitude you can’t.
