Why did he say that...?

I over heard a conversation today:
R: Hey How are you?
J: Good how are you?
R: what are you doing today?
J: We are going out to lunch with our Adopted Grandson.
and so on....
Why the heck did he have to label his Grandson?
Why didn't he just say going out to lunch with my Grandson?
What are your thoughts?

that's sad. NOt sure if you knew these people or not. But, I had an "adopted" grandmother who was just a friend of the family, and she took me on as a grandchild and always called me her adopted grandchild.

Other than that example, I think it is hideous!

I had the same thought. I wonder if it was an "adopted" as in a friend of the family. At our church, we "adopt" college students, so I wonder if it was something similar...maybe a child in the neighborhood who doesn't have grandparents around?
