There’s no denying that children have a knack for delivering the most amusing answers to questions, often filled with heartwarming honesty. If you’re ever in need of a laugh, there’s nothing quite like asking a child for their perspective!

The following video is a delightful example of just how entertaining kids can be, especially when they’re talking about grandmothers.

Kids Talk About God is a wonderful website designed to teach children about faith through engaging online content. It often features videos of kids enthusiastically sharing their thoughts on various spiritual topics. Some responses are insightful, and others are downright hilarious.

A particularly funny clip features a charming young boy from the Southern United States.

This delightful segment has been a viral sensation, amassing over 3.8 million views — and it’s easy to see why!

During the interview, the little tyke was asked an intriguing question: “Why did God create grandmothers?”

In the simplicity of a child’s view, he readily confessed he didn’t have all the answers but eagerly shared what he did know.

“Well, God made grandmothers to love and care about you,” he says, his Southern drawl adding extra charm. “That’s all I know.”

He continues to regale his interviewers with tales of his remarkable grandmother.

“She’s 100-years-old. I can’t believe that! And her name is ‘MayMa’ and she’s the king of all of them!” he passionately declares.

This young philosopher understands the concept of generations well beyond his years.

“If she wouldn’t be on this earth, I wouldn’t be on this earth,” he articulates wisely.

Kudos to this little fellow! His explanations were indeed spot-on, laced with innocence and humor.

According to scholars Kristen Hawkes and James O’Connell, the “Grandmother Hypothesis” suggests that grandmothers play a crucial role in human society far beyond being the starting point of their family tree.

In an Atlantic article, it’s noted that “grandmothers’ style of upbringing, which emphasizes social dependence, helped develop ‘a whole array of social capacities that are the foundation for the evolution of other human traits, like pair bonding, bigger brains, learning skills, and cooperation.’ Grandmothers, Hawkes posits, are what make us human.”

Grandmothers hold a special place in the hearts of their grandchildren for many reasons.

Often perceived as the nurturers who spoil with both love and gifts, grandmothers play a unique role in the family dynamic.

There’s a particular reason why grandmothers can be so indulgent.

As Psychology Today observes, grandparents like grandmothers aren’t routinely tasked with addressing their grandchildren’s challenges or acting as disciplinarians. This gives them the freedom to be more lenient and enjoy the simpler joys of the children’s company.

“Having trodden the demanding path of parenthood, they’re now in a position to savor all the charming antics of children: their innocence, imaginative play, curiosity, and the novel ways they express themselves.”

Truly, grandmas and grandpas are among the greatest blessings! And who better than a child to distill the magic of why grandmothers were created?
