Apparently I am far too young to be a granddad.

48 is pretty young. You'll be a great (great?) grandad by the time I'm your age!

Poor parenting as in, allowing her to have sex? Or refusing to force her to have an abortion?

The grand parents should step in obviously. TMs poor parenting has led to this so obviously he should give up work to look after the kid while his daughter can go back to uni to get her degree in Drama and then go on the dole in 4 years.

Haircut and then trader joes for some bits and bobs.
