Today, I learned my grandson tells everyone I have dementia to explain his compulsive labeling of everything in our house. Apparently, I otherwise don't know what is the "table" or "sink" or "refrigerator". This puts his friends' behavior towards me in a new light. FML

I was going to make a joke, but I forgot what it was.

Well, just for the laugh try to act like you do and see if his friends stick around. :p

That sucks OP, maybe explain to him it's not right to say things like that, and that having OCD is ok? Hope the friends attitude towards isn't too bad

Funny, I love to label things too, though not quite as far as labelling the table and sink...

Damn. why would he label the table though?

For the reason stated in the fml maybe?

Take all the labels off when his friends are over and watch him squirm.

That would definitely be . . . interesting.

yes, lets see the child have a meltdown due to his OCD, I am sure that it would be hilarious. /sarcasm

You need to have a serious sit down and talk to him about his OCD, maybe try to get him to finally get help.

That's a bit harsh coming from your grandson. You guys need to sit down and talk about why he thinks it's okay to lie and say you have dementia, and also maybe suggest to him the idea of getting help for his OCD.

This sounds like a case of obsessive compulsive disorder, maybe try convincing him to get treatment for it?

That's a pretty sucky thing to tell people
