Controversy is brewing over the story of a Chinese woman who became a grandmother at the age of 36.

Liu, 36, who lives in Huizhou, southern China's Guangdong Province, released a video of himself happy with his recently born grandson, according to the Hong Kong media South China Morning Post and the Chinese version of TikTok.

She "I'm so happy and proud to have such a lovely grandson. My daughter-in-law worked so hard," he said.



The baby's father and Liu's son are only 18 and his wife is 20, so they cannot legally register their marriage.

In China, the legal marriage age is 22 for men and 20 for women.



Liu was very pleased that her 38-year-old husband would become a grandfather""Our family has a tradition of getting married and giving birth early. "

The baby's great-grandmother is also just 58 years old.



Liu shared a video of her shopping with her daughter-in-law, boasting that `At the age of 36, you can hang out with your 20-year-old daughter-in-law like a friend.'

As the story spread, various public opinions were raised online.

Netizens are saying, "A grandson at the age of 36 is the real winner of life.""I think life in old age will be easy."I think the house will always be bright."" While responding positively, his 18-year-old son should go to college, not be a father", "Unintelligible Family", "Parents too young are often unable to properly care for their newborn" They are also posting negative comments such as that.
