I HAVE NEVER BEEN CONFUSED IN
MY LIFE LIKE
THIS.
Two men met at a bus stop and
struck up a
conversation.
One of them kept complaining
about 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 and we got married.
Later my father
married my
stepdaughter. That made my
stepdaughter my
stepmother
and my father became my
stepson.
Also my wife became mother in
law of her
father in law.
Then 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 grandson.
That made me
the
grandfather of my half brother.
This was nothing until my wife
and I had a son.
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
step sister is my fathers wife.
Thus 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’m my own
grandfather.
And you think you have family
problems?
