re: Why is the Grandfather-grandson relationship so special?

I barely got that experience as one of my grandfathers died before I was born and the other when I was very young. I would imagine the reason it is so special is that your father had to be the authority figure and disciplinarian while your grandfather got to give you lots of fatherly advice and experiences without all the bad memories from when your dad had to whip your butt and make you do chores.

My paternal grandfather died before I was born, and my dad always said he and I would have been super close because we were exactly alike. I remember we were at a family wedding when I was 19 or 20, and I walked down to the lobby of the hotel in my suit and my dad just froze and said he thought for a minute I was his dad because I looked and walked just like him.
