text: my grandfather is sooo annoying.......help!!? well, my grandfather is really mean to me. he doesnt do anything physical but he is all words. he calls me stupid, ugly, and other nasty things. it is so annoying. this is the grandfather on my dad's side. one year, my grandfather from my mom's side came to dinner at the grandparent's house (on my dads side) and my grandpa on my moms side was such a sweet man, well my grandpa on my dads side called him fat, and some other choice words. my mom has talked to my dad since my grandpa has gotten worse with the names and my dad says he will talk to him but i dont think he will;; because he hasnt yet and he says 'its just teasing'. well even if it is just teasing; it makes me feek horrible and upset and annoyed. and no one in my family does anything about it! they just let him do it!!   what do i do?????? i've just been calling him names back but i usually get yelled at! what should i do??? please help me!! wear earplugs whenever you get in hearing distance of him and just smile wide, and if you see his lips moving, just say "i think you are too.", either way it has to be a positive comment or an annoying but powerful comeback.  another approach is to avoid him & ignore him until he realises that he is not wanted. he will leave you alone, and if he starts calling you names tell him that you have bettter things to do than listen to him time-consuming lectures on your own inferiority. old people get pissed off when you use big words.  also, you might want to group together with your mom to solve the problem, because she has power in the household, and both of you together might convince your dad to talk to your grandfather.   i hope this advice helps because i have the exact same problem, i don't get what it is but grandfathers on your dad's side are really mean to you some times if you are a girl. hope this helps! good luck!
