Family Problems
 

Family Problems

Two men met at a bus stop and struck up a conversation. One
of them kept complaining of 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 stepsister is my father's wife. I'm 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! ;) :162:

"And you think you have family problems!"
