Bob and Mary are spending the day with the grandchildren Ava and Matt their first
Stop lunch at the town diner in East Windsor, New Jersey
But their generational differences are keeping them from seeing eye-to-eye
How you been doing in school kids? Not bad
Ava look up at your grandfather when he's talking to you on everything from technology
I don't understand why your parents let you have these things to manners, you know when your mother was your age
We taught her how to actually look at people how to have a conversation to discipline your parents let you get away with everything
Well, it doesn't happen when you're with us if you witness
grandparents becoming
Exasperated by their grandchildren's conduct kids today. They have no respect
What would you do Ava do you have to play the game the whole time you're sitting here with us?
You have to do anything around your house or do you just get your allowance? No matter what just
Just get your allowance. This pair starts to listen in as Bob and Mary do nothing
but disapprove of the distracted youngsters
All right, I'm gonna go wash my hands when our grandparents step away
Now you both stay off those devices until we come back they lay down the law
Don't move and don't be talking to anybody
Ava defies their orders seeking solace and these other diners but
When the grumpy grandparents returned didn't I tell you not to look at those things when we were gone you don't listen
Sorry, nothing. Okay. I'm not taking it to you
And he's not the only one compelled to speak up
They don't listen to us they don't have to listen to you right now, you're not being nice. Do you have grandkids?
Yeah, we always do all they do is look at these machines. There's different generation. You have to look at that
They're not still need to take it out. I would never speak to my grandchildren the way he do
It's disgusting. Really. It's abuse. I heard you. All right, I would be ashamed of you and my grandfather
You felt for those kids I did I mean there are horrible grandparents I thought
Your inference aful love and you know good things you yelled at there
I couldn't help it and I said to my dog get a bow didn't want her together
But then I lost it
Your advice to those grandparents treat the kids like a human. Dr. Bader was terrible
We're back at the table and the kids can't seem to do anything right Matt Would you please sit up?
I can't stand watching you slouching all the time
Yes, we brought up your mother differently. My father used to whip me with his belt put the thing down
I don't want to see you use never when we send Bob and Mary away once again
Ava quickly finds this friendly face
But they happen to be right many after what should I do when he comes back when he comes back if I were you
Explain to him that you know
You loved him. So he'll see your side a bit of story
Then he's unexpectedly drawn right into the middle of this family feud she bothering him
Absolutely, not. Absolutely
Not you're supposed to be sitting here. We told her not to talk to your college eyes. He wanted apologize to me
She's apologizing to you, but you won't talk to us
It's a different world today ma'am. You don't realize we're trying to have our daughter raise good kids
Everybody wants that. It's
Exasperation I agree with you. Look I know first and how it is because I lose my composure as well
But I've learned to control myself
Honestly, and I'm not trying to ridicule you believe me. I'm not
You're welcome
They continue scolding the kids for being on their devices
If I asked you to please put that away and in front of this couple Bob
Says the unthinkable. I really wish you weren't our grandkids and the diner's react right away
You wish they weren't your grandkids
You don't you have to stop you're right, but you're doing it the wrong way
He makes it clear that he agrees with the message although not the delivery
We're just trying to teach them good manners
That's not what you do you don't have grandchildren
Okay, listen to you, I can't listen to the saying anyway, okay
Alright break it we won't make them listen anymore
How are you boy, you couldn't take it in our own I am from Brooklyn and when I got something to say
I'll say it. What did it for you? What put you over the edge? I'm a grandmother
So I have two granddaughters and I would never speak to them like that ever. I think the way they were
Not except you're glad you spoke up. Yes, I am. I always speak up
As they're rolling one last time this mother and her two daughters
Sit down for dinner put the things away and look at the menu. All right
In an instant mom is aware of what's happening
I don't know what your mother is teaching at home
But this is not gonna fly with us when I ask you to do something do it
She's trying to tend to her own children, but she can't keep her eyes off the scene at the next table
Don't make me have to yell at you and it's this insult from our grandpa
You know, I'm ashamed to call you my grandkids and that really bothers her
Although her own children try to stop her. She can't hold in her emotions
I'm sorry, you said no we've been having problems with them all the way over here
Then she makes a plea to the children as well
Just be with your grandparents cuz I'm not gonna be here forever life is so short
So many people don't even have their grandparents. Okay, please put your phones down and just enjoy your meal with him. I
Just think about it really
Time to meet this warm-hearted woman of John quinones, it's only a TV show they're actors
I'm so sorry. We upset you. Why did you do that? I just felt like I have to be an advocate for
Kids and I had some issues of my father was a very angry person and we had situations at dinner where things would be thrown
And horrible things would be said and I made an effort for the rest of my life to stand up for children
That need to have that voice
