18 Bright Siders Share Photos of Grandmothers and Grandkids Proving Genes Rock

Grannies are amazing people! They always think we aren’t hungry enough and are too skinny. They know dozens of fairytales and have many cool stories to tell. They give us a piece of themselves and it can be clearly seen in our appearance.

Bright Side readers know this well. They shared photos where grannies and their grandkids look like twins. And this is direct proof of the power of genes.
