Family Problems

Two men met at a bus stop and struck up a conversation.

One of them kept complaining of family problems.

Finally, the other man said: “You think you have family problems? Listen to my situation.

“A few years ago, I met a young widow with a grown-up daughter.

“We got married and I got myself a stepdaughter. Later, my father married my stepdaughter. That made my stepdaughter, my step-mother, and my father became my stepson. Also, my wife became mother-in-law of her father-in-law.

“Much later, the daughter of my wife, my stepmother, had a son.

“This boy was my half-brother because he was my father’s son.

“But he was also the son of my wife’s daughter which made him my wife’s grand-son. That made me the grandfather of my half-brother.

“This was nothing, until my wife and I had a baby. Now the half-sister of my son, my stepmother, is also the grandmother.

“This makes my father the brother-in-law of my child, whose stepsister is my father’s wife; I am my stepmother’s brother-in-law, my wife is her own child’s aunt, my son is my father’s nephew and I am my OWN GRANDFATHER!

“And you think YOU have family problems!”
