So, you've grown up and flown the nest. When you look in the mirror, you see a confident, sassy young woman (usually) with a great career, and everything to be proud of. Well. Not quite. See, your parents know that the only way you'll truly make them proud is to pop out a few kids of your own, allowing them to live their dream of being grandparents. The reasons for this can differ from parent to parent. Maybe they really do think the only way for their child to be happy is to have children. Maybe they think the only reason you exist is to give them what they want. Maybe they just want some cute kids to dandle on their knee and show photos of them to strangers. Maybe they need someone to carry on the family name. Maybe they want all the joy of children with none of the responsibility of raising them, or maybe they just want to watch you endure all the torture you gave them. If you want to go by evolutionary psychology on this, the entire point of life (as much as life can be said to have a point) is to produce healthy — and fertile — grandkids, as it means that your genes have passed the test of natural selection. Either way, you can bet they'll be taking every opportunity to remind their children that their biological clock is ticking, and they should hop to it and make some kids. If the children resist, they can expect to be treated to Not Wanting Kids Is Weird. Expect things to be awkward if these parents get introduced to a new love interest, or even an opposite sex friend. You can also expect the occasional mention of how the parents spent the child's entire teen years telling them sex is bad, only to turn a complete 180 at some point and suddenly start telling them to get on with it. If the child is bereaved, this may be one reason why they urge them to seek out a new partner, telling them You Have Waited Long Enough. This can be Truth in Television, but it's so common that there's no need for Real Life examples. Note that, despite the above description, this trope is not Always Female. Both male and female examples are straight uses. Contrast Siblings Wanted, where it's the characters' own children who demand from them to get busy (again) rather than their parents. |

Avocado Toast: Molly's reluctant to get a hysterectomy for treating her endometriosis because she wanted to give her parents grandchildren somehow. However, she does anyway as it's necessary. They immediately assure her health comes first (her ovaries were preserved, leaving some options anyway). | |

How Eating a Strange Fruit Gave Me My Quirk (a My Hero Academia fic): Inko Midoriya grows excited every time the idea of grandchildren comes up. She even has "Potential Daughter-In-Law Senses" that allow her to sense when Izuku is talking to other girls. According to Mandalay, part of Pixie-Bob's desperation for finding a boyfriend is a mix of both constant nagging from her parents to give them grandchildren and how despite being 18 at heart, physically she's not getting any younger. |

Wonder Woman (2006): Even Wonder Woman gets this from her mother, Queen Hippolyta, when she introduces new love interest Tom Tresser during Gail Simone's run. Is no one safe? Granted, this was during a time when Diana and Hippolyta were the only two Amazons left which strongly influenced how they were thinking. And of course, Hippolyta was so desperate for a daughter that she moved the gods into miraculously creating Diana. She just really seems to like kids. She's not alone either: one Amazon led the others into revolt mostly out of envy that Hippolyta got to be a mother and she didn't. | |

Tokyo Ghoul: Downplayed for the most part. Mirumo's diary mentions how eager he is to see Shuu have children of his own, but the father and son haven't been shown discussing the issue of marriage or children. Instead, he seems content to support his son's pursuits and wants him to find an epic romance before grandkids come into the picture. In comparison, when Kuroiwa is visited and the topic of his son's upcoming marriage is discussed, it becomes clear that Takeomi is expected to start having children immediately. | |

Ranma ½ Fanon traditionally has this as a major motivation for Ranma's mother, Nodoka. This probably arose as a way to justify her concern with Ranma's "manliness" with the opposite sex, especially since he spent most of his life away from her during his training trip. Canonically, both of the fathers want Ranma to "carry on the School of Anything-Goes martial arts", which would involve grandchildren. | |

Black Sky: Daniela Vongola is quite disgruntled by her grandsons for failing to marry when they already are forty-and-more years old and giving her babies to spoil. She outright dotes on her granddauther Erica — for being a mother of two — and her grandson Xanxus — because she raised him and he's still young enough for a good wedding. When she learns Xanxus discreetly married and fathered three children, she's ecstatic and declares he's her favourite. | |

Bi no Kyoujin: A big point of contention between Kabu's father and Kabu himself isn't the fact that Kabu is dating another man in the person of his second-in-command Nirasawa, but rather the necessity of the presence of an ane (usual title for the clan's leader's consort) for diplomatic reasons on one hand and the necessity to at least produce one male heir to perpetuate the clan. Kabu's father points out to Nirasawa that the only tenable position for him is to accept being Kabu's ''mistress''. | |

Arrow has a particularly twisted example with Ra's Al Ghul. After convincing Oliver Queen to take his place as the leader of the League of Assassins, he forces his daughter Nyssa to marry Oliver in order to create his own dynasty. Nyssa is quite open about her homosexuality, so the implications are obvious. | |

Disney Animated Canon: Cinderella: The King has this bad, to the point that the whole reason he announces the ball is so he can find a suitable wife for the prince, which will hopefully lead to grandchildren. He later takes the prince's comment about how he'd marry the girl Cinderella's slipper belongs to (not knowing her name) literally, and tries to find any girl that will fit the slipper, regardless of if it's the same one. Justified, since producing heirs (and having his heirs produce heirs) is the only way a royal dynasty can survive. However, the King is clearly more interested in "hearing the pitter-patter of little feet again" and actually dreams about doing "grandfatherly" things like playing horsey with a grandson and granddaughter. Sleeping Beauty: On top of uniting their kingdoms, both King Stefan and King Hubert have expressed this as another reason for arranging for their children to be married. Hubert is the more enthusiastic at first, but Stefan quickly warms to the idea. The Princess and the Frog: This is apparently one of the reasons Eudora wants her daughter Tiana to settle down a little. |

Honor Harrington: The titular character's mother is obsessed with getting her daughter knocked up and drops hints about bring vials when she meets her boyfriend. Since they can raise the babies in tubes, it's not even a problem that she's an active duty navy officer. In some ways not having grandchildren actually creates huge problems when Honor is believed dead due to inheritance laws being complicated. | |

Paranormal Activity: The third film has this. Julie already has two daughters and is content with them, but her mother, Lois, still nudges her to have another baby, preferably a son. Julie is of course annoyed at the implication. In hindsight, her mother simply wanting a son to cuddle on is much easier to accept than if she were to present him to a demon. Lois later indirectly disposes of Julie and sets her sight on her younger granddaughter, who eventually does conceive a son. | |

Kevin & Kell: Desdemona Fuscus is seen asking Kell which of them should be the first to bring the topic of grandchildren up to the recently married Fenton and Lindesfarne. Desdemona isn't as bad as Lindesfarne and Fenton's house (a sentient tree named Tree), who keeps pestering them. Lindesfarne is very ambivalent about the idea though especially since, as a former human, her children are likely to become human themselves. On the one hand, society already doesn't handle her cousin, Token Human Francis Fennec, as well as they could. On the other hand, her having a human daughter might be the only way Francis can have a mate he can breed with. (And before anyone asks, they're cousins by adoption, so the Not Blood Siblings trope comes into play if that happens.) In August 2017, she gave birth to a daughter who's half hedgehog, half bat (shown as a bat with hedgehog quills). However, it should be noted that Francis was born animal too, and later spontaneously turned human, so time will tell. | |

Rosario + Vampire: Both Mizore and Kurumu's mothers tell them that they expect Tsukune to pop out some kids with them, much to his chagrin. Highly justified in Mizore's case, as her people hit menopause in their mid twenties, leaving them a very narrow window in which to produce the next generation. | |

A Diplomatic Visit: In chapter 3 of the sequel Diplomat at Large, Windy Whistles expresses a desire for grandfoals, but is more reasonable about it than most examples, pointing out that Rainbow Dash has career plans and she won't ask her to put those on hold — she can wait until later. Velvet expresses a desire for grandfoals from Twilight in chapter 13. The fact that the prospective other parent is another mare doesn't stop her in the slightest. Velvet again hints at this in chapter 2 of the second sequel, Diplomacy Through Schooling, eying Cadance and Shining Armor this time. |

Naruto: Mentioned in a flashback, when the Konoha children and teenagers are banned from joining the adults in fighting the Kyuubi on the loose. The one leading the operation is Kurenai's father, who tells the trope almost word by word to not just his daughter but to the boys he's taking to safety as well. Notable in that this was more a case of More Expendable Than You than pressuring his child to have children. He's in no rush to be a grandfather; he just wants his kid to live long enough to have kids. | |

I Think Our Son Is Gay: Downplayed, but for drama, in Chapter 10. Akiyoshi told his sons he would "love to see our son's wedding" and "see our grandkids' faces". The tone is hardly serious, but it's enough to cause his Closet Gay elder son Hiroki to fall into one of his rare Gayngst moments. His mother Tomoko gives him a Cooldown Hug to make him know she'll support him always. | |

Still, she's no more eager to be "up for auction" than her dad was in King's Quest II: Romancing the Throne. | |

In another strip, when Jon's parents are introduced, one of the first things we hear Jon's mother say (besides "Eat, eat, eat!") is "You meet some nice girl. Settle down. Start a family." She never touched on the issue again... that is until Jon and Liz started dating. |

Nanoha's parents indirectly implied this in a letter in Through a Mirror, Darkly. Sure, they already had Vivio to dote on, but they wanted somebody to carry on the family bloodline. And if your wondering why they didn't pester her older brother and sister instead, Kyouya and Shinobu couldn't have kids (since Shinobu is a vampire) and Miyuki didn't have anybody. Nanoha was married to Yuuno (and Fate) and shouldn't have any problems having a kid. |

It's Walky!: Joyce's mother, big time. She even asked the bridal store if they had dresses with elastic waistbands so Joyce wouldn't let a silly thing like conceiving out of wedlock stop her (which shows just how much she wants grandbabies, as she's pretty strictly Christian otherwise) and was busted poking holes in their condoms (which, is implied to have worked in at least one alternate timeline, as the moment Walky busts her, fifteen of the future children Head Alien kidnapped disappeared). When she's shot during Joyce and Walky's wedding she flat out blackmails Joyce into agreeing to give her grandchildren by making Joyce think it was her dying wish (she actually got shot in the butt). She's also disappointed to meet Joyce and Walky's Kid from the Future Bobby, as she wants a grandbaby. | |

Fire and Ice (1983): Queen Juliana is the Evil Matriarch to Nekron and very adamant that he produces an heir, going as far as kidnapping Princess Teegra to provide her son with a consort/concubine. Nekron on the other hand is repulsed with the idea and throws Teegra in the dungeon instead. The film's prequel comic reveals that Nekron had an elder brother named Kaledan whom the former had poisoned, making Nekron the only remaining son of the royal house. Juliana wanting Nekron to produce children makes perfect sense in that context. | |

When Penny's dad was first introduced he was exited that she and Leonard were dating, though at the end she had to reveal that she was lying and she and Leonard had broken up. After he was done yelling at Penny, she goes to pack her dad's stuff, and he begs Leonard to get back together with her saying that he wants grandkids before he dies, but doesn't want them to be fathered by the type of white trash she used to date back home. |

Destiny Intertwined: General Tordner, Lynerius' father, is deeply irritated at his son's childlessness and intent to stay that way because Lynerius is his eldest son and thus heir to their clan and also one of the most powerful living masters of the element of lightning. Under the social customs of Warfang's nobility, Lynerius has a moral obligation to wed and reproduce — or, at least, that's how Tordner sees it. | |

A Clash of NEETs: Hestia is the divine equivalent, being the goddess of family; she views all mortal followers of the Seven Goddesses as her children, and part of her scripture implores them to give her many, many grandkids to dote upon (something she helps with due to also being the goddess of fertility and new life. It's noted, however, that she's a little less accepting of gay couples than her sisters for this reason, since they can't procreate, but encourages adoption since her church runs most of the orphanages in Westeros. | |

The Order of the Stick When Roy leaves the Heavenly Mountain, his mother Sara instructs him to marry his girlfriend and get her pregnant. Celia isn't the same species or even from the same plane of existence as Roy, although the strip takes place in a RPG Mechanics 'Verse where Half-Human Hybrids of every sort are possible. Apparently, Roy's mother would get along well with Celia's. In the prequel Start of Darkness, Redcloak's mom shows some of this. |

The Irregular at Magic High School: It's a major plot twist that Maya Yotsuba, of all people, wants kids and grandkids. Unfortunately, prior injury meant she couldn't bear kids herself. So she "stole" her sister's son by driving a wedge between the two, ensuring that he would be considered The Unfavorite due to Unequal Rites. Then she suggested that the clan make a female Artificial Human to be the next heir, specifically modifying said homunculus' genes so that she could reproduce with the son. note It's not really explained why Maya didn't just make an artificial kid to begin with. 16 years passed, during which Maya's sister and only co-ruler. Then she told her nephew and the homunculus that they were going to be married, and the next rulers of the clan, and that he was really Maya's son, regardless of biology. Nobody really believed this bullshit, but they went along with it because Maya would run them through with laser beams if they didn't. | |

Not Always Right: The site has this story, where an older woman freaks out about her age and mentions trying to pressure her 30-year-old daughter into dating for this purpose. Played with in this story. A man on his way to a job interview with the employee's father is rude enough that the employee calls Dad in front of the customer. A more lighthearted example here. The submitter is worried that their mother is having trouble with them coming out as gay, but when they develop an interest in getting a dog, the mother jokes that the dog will be her grandchild, proving she's over it. This example from the sub-site Not Always Related. One nosy mother bluntly asks her child about "sex with ex". |

My Huntsman Academia has an inversion of this. Inko Midoriya faints when she learns that her son Izuku is the leader of a team of three gorgeous Huntresses and is sleeping in the same room as them. When she comes to, she then proceeds to fly into a panic and squeals that she's not ready to be a grandmother. Izuku has to make several hurried assurances to her in public that he's not going to impregnate any of them. A while later, she sends an entire box full of condoms to him as a precaution, which Weiss and Pyrrha find first. Inko faints again when Nora's vague wording makes it sound as though Izuku is in a polyamorous relationship with every girl on his team. | |

She later elaborates that right now Lelouch is focused on his rage and fury. Being married to the woman he trusts and loves along with having a family will provide him a peaceful life once the war with Savage and Darkseid is over, saving him from his pain. It will also allow Barda to see her son live a full life since as an immortal she will eventually witness Lelouch and Nunnally die from old age while she remains physically unchanged. | |

Schlock Mercenary: On Captain Kaff Tagon's 50th birthday his father, General Karl Tagon, berates him about his life in general, and not producing grandchildren. After talk about their lack of "a legacy" doesn't work he tries talking to some of the single women around Kaff, the result is seen on the quotes page.note Ironically said woman develops a bit of a crush on Karl later. The General once pointed out that since they have Kaff's DNA on file after Kaff's death, technically he doesn't need him around to get grandchildren. He hasn't gotten quite that desperate yet, since they opted to clone him and download his backup. In the last book a clone of Kaff's clone and Captain Alexia Murtagh's clone created for an assumed one-way extragalactic trip get together, much to both their progenitors' surprises, and are seen with a couple kids in the epilogue. The former general's reaction is not seen. | |

Cathy: The titular character's mother constantly nags Cathy to marry so she can give her grandkids, to the point that she sent cards to Cathy's ex-boyfriends. The nagging only increases when Cathy does get married, to the point when Cathy and Irving even suggest the idea of kids at their age, she comes storming in with material to help them out. When Cathy announces she is pregnant in the final strip, her mother fell to her knees in jubilation. It's to show the differences between the attitudes and aspirations of Cathy and her mother; Cathy wants to further her career; marriage and children were not high on her priority list. Meanwhile, her mother was raised with the idea that a woman's purpose in life is to get married and produce Babies Ever After. Exaggerated in a MAD parody of the strip, where Cathy's mother decides to prevent her from getting an abortion by burning down the local abortion clinics and having two pro-lifers move in with her, even though she was date-raped. Even though she justifies it by saying that she doesn't want Cathy to violate God's laws, she admits after hanging up that "The need to be a grandmother overrides all else." |

Kyoko invokes the trope by name after Shinji and Asuka's first time. This carries over into ND's sister fic, Walking in the Shadow of Dreams, as Rei is more or less fixated on the BABIESBABIESBABIES drive. |

Fans!: When Rikk and his wife Aly formed a polyamorous union with Rumy, Rikk's conservative mother did not take it well and nearly stopped speaking to her son. Later, at dinner with Rikk's parents, Rumy accidentally let it slip that she was preparing to act as a surrogate mother for Rikk and Aly (Aly wanted a baby but due to a disease that nearly killed her before, she did not have viable ovaries, and Rumy was too active as a member of AEGIS to carry a baby to term, so Rumy conceived the child with Rikk, and then doctors used alien-tech to transplant the fetus into Aly's still-functioning womb). Rikk's mom then approached Rumy, hugged her fiercely and declared, "You're my new favorite daughter-in-law!" Her desire to be an active part of her grandchild's life won out over any objections to her son's unconventional lifestyle. | |

Revenge Films: A woman wanted her daughter-in-law to birth her grandkids despite her son's inability to conceive. However, he frames his wife for his infertility in a cowardly move to save his own skin from his mother's abuse. A man ends up sleeping with his daughter-in-law to get her pregnant (with her fully going along with it due to her own desire for a baby) while his wife happily supports them. When Jill turns out to be infertile, the couple immediately dumps her and tries to have the father rape the brother’s wife to get her pregnant. Luckily, the wife sends out a message to the brother and both he and the main character stop the father just in time. The parents-in-law are ecstatic when their son cheats on his wife and brings home a new woman as they believe they are finally going to finally be able to have grandchildren. However, their son was infertile and the new girl was as well due to having too many abortions and ST Ds. "My father broke into my brother's house… Then…": The OP's father broke into her brother's house to rape the latter's wife and impregnate her himself because she didn't bear him grandkids. This drove the brother to risk an arrest to give his father a beating and then do the same at his parents' house as their mother also supported her bastard of a husband's decision. |

Everybody Loves Raymond: Marie, to the point of making a "love nest" for her son Robert and his wife in their house complete with Barry White CDs. Robert moans "I can't breed in captivity!". What makes this an interesting case is that she already has three grandchildren but because they are no longer excited to see her when she comes over (due to both growing out of it and, as Debora pointed out, simply by virtue of her spending more time at their house than her own) and simply wants new ones so she can "be grandma" again. Marie is generally considered one of, if not THE, most selfish, self centered characters on the show because of actions like these. | |

Dragon Age: Origins: If you spared Teryn Loghain and married Anora (only possible as a male Human Noble), Loghain will reappear in Awakening and remind you that you have a duty to produce an heir. Ostensibly it's because the Ferelden throne needs a clear line of succession, but this trope is probably in play as well. However, the game implies that having children can be difficult for Grey Wardens. Whether male or female, the Human Noble origin includes the Warden's mother, Eleanor, lamenting that she's had difficulty setting up an Arranged Marriage for them. She has one grandson, but wants more. |

Apocalypto: Poor Blunted is apparently impotent. His hunting buddies find ways to tease him about this when on a hunt, and he returns to find his mother-in-law completely uninterested in the meat he's caught, but hollering out this trope to no end. Mother-in-law grabs her daughter and all but pitches the two of them into the tent with orders to get busy. Poor, poor Blunted. This is the day the old huntmaster also chose to pull a practical joke on him regarding his ineffectual genitals. Think, son, why would Gramps be carrying Jungle Viagra on him during a hunt? No good reason. But Jungle Heat Rub? | |

A Brother's Price: Queen Elder explicitly tells the protagonists that her family's numbers are reduced, and she wants grandchildren. Justified in that she is one of the Queens, and there need to be heirs of the throne. She doesn't pester her daughters about this, though — they know what is expected of them. | |

If you spared Teryn Loghain and married Anora (only possible as a male Human Noble), Loghain will reappear in Awakening and remind you that you have a duty to produce an heir. Ostensibly it's because the Ferelden throne needs a clear line of succession, but this trope is probably in play as well. However, the game implies that having children can be difficult for Grey Wardens. | |

Something*Positive: Faye once became depressed that Davan didn't seem like he would ever settle down and Dahlia was on the record that she didn't want kids. She briefly considered finding a way to trick Davan and his girlfriend Branwen into getting pregnant (to Fred's surprise, since she's usually the sane one in the family). Chirag is gay. His parents know he's gay, but they don't know that he knows that. His brother and sister are also gay, and once they came out of the closet, their parents immediately started bugging them about settling down and having kids. To avoid this, he still pretends to be in the closet when they visit him, begging his female friends to play The Beard. |

Becomes kind of sad when you look into the backstory here. Fa'lina adopted Pyroduck after Pyro was taken as a hostage in the Dragon-Cubi war, during which Fa'lina's entire clan (which she founded) was killed. Cyra (Dan's grandmother) does this to Dan as well. | |

Archer: Zig Zagged by Malory Archer. For the first few seasons she's vehemently against the idea of becoming a grandmother and repeatedly pressures Sterling to get a vasectomy to avoid any further "accidents". Apparently she started to change her mind when Sterling was diagnosed with cancer and had him freeze some sperm as insurance. In season six Lana Kane reveals it was Malory's idea for her to use the frozen sperm when she got IVF in the previous season, making her daughter Malory's grandchild. | |

Ménage à 3: Takeru Oyama demonstrates the trope within seconds of meeting his daughter Yuki's new boyfriend Gary. Faintly creepy, or at least Freudian, in that his relationship with Yuki has previously been difficult, and that's largely because childhood exposure to the tentacle-porn Hentai which he created damaged her psychologically. | |

It's stated several times that Yetta (Fran's grandmother) nagged Sylvia about giving her grandchildren years ago. Specifically, when Fran was giving Sylvia grief, Sylvia turned and blamed Yetta for pressuring her for grandchildren. Yetta simply responded, "That's right, Cookie, it's payback time." | |

Cinderella: The King has this bad, to the point that the whole reason he announces the ball is so he can find a suitable wife for the prince, which will hopefully lead to grandchildren. He later takes the prince's comment about how he'd marry the girl Cinderella's slipper belongs to (not knowing her name) literally, and tries to find any girl that will fit the slipper, regardless of if it's the same one. Justified, since producing heirs (and having his heirs produce heirs) is the only way a royal dynasty can survive. However, the King is clearly more interested in "hearing the pitter-patter of little feet again" and actually dreams about doing "grandfatherly" things like playing horsey with a grandson and granddaughter. | |

Maison Ikkoku: One reason why Grandma Godai uses her funeral savings to pay for Godai and Kyoko's wedding is that she wants to see her great-grandkids. Kyoko's mother is constantly pushing Kyoko to remarry, and uses this trope as an excuse at one point. She might have something of a genuine desire for grandchildren, but the excuse is primarily a means to an end. |

Girl Genius: Oggie, despite not being human anymore, is very concerned about the continuation of his family line. His great-great-grandson is currently in hiding to avoid being pestered about when he'll settle down and father some great-great-great grandchildren. Oggie's great-great-grandson also made the mistake of telling his ancestor he'd "get married when you find a Heterodyne!" As he shortly discovers, that's not as far-fetched as he'd thought. Oggie's response? "Iz going to be great-great-GREAT grandpapa!" Castle Heterodyne has a bit of this in pressuring Agatha Heterodyne, though it's more about producing an heir to secure the line of succession than any nurturing instinct. Interestingly, the novelizations note that the Castle is programmed with the personality of Faustus Heterodyne, Agatha's ancestor — so in a roundabout way it's "I Want Great-Great-Great- [Several "Greats" later] -Great-Grandkids". |

I Hope You're Prepared For An Unforgettable Wedding!: Agnes Skinner says she'll only go through with her son Seymour's decision to marry Superintendent Chalmers if he can still find a way to have a child (since two men can't naturally make a baby), because she wants grandchildren. Seymour finds a solution by entering into a surrogacy agreement, and having a surrogate mother carry his and Gary's child. | |

Shrek 2: Queen Lillian implies this by saying the swamp would be a fine place for Shrek and Fiona to raise their children. Both Shrek and Harold are against the idea of children though. Lillian is delighted in Shrek the Third when Fiona announces her pregnancy. At the end of the film, she becomes a grandmother when Fiona gives birth to triplets. | |

The Cat in the Stacks Mysteries: Despite the fact that they tend to butt heads on several matters, Azalea Berry is fiercely proud of her daughter Kanesha and her accomplishments, with one exception — Azalea is disappointed that Kanesha hasn't married and given her grandchildren, which is a touchy subject between the pair. Charlie is mentioned as looking forward to being a grandfather as well. He gets his wish when, at the end of book 6, his daughter Laura informs him that she's pregnant; in book 7, his son Sean informs him that Sean's fiancee Alexandra is also expecting, so they're moving their wedding up to immediately. |

The Heart Trilogy (a The Hobbit fic): In Heart of Ashes, Andraya tries to bargain with Smaug to have him impregnate her daughter Freyja while he's still in human form. She believes that the old magic of the Third Age's greatest fire drake combined with the magic stored in her otherwise normal daughter would make the offspring powerful enough to rival the wizards, and Andraya would use the offspring to keep herself and Freyja free of the men Andraya hates. The reason she's not planning to mate with Smaug herself is because she sacrificed her fertility to awaken him from a coma. Andraya never manages to make Smaug comply with her goal, and both she and Freyja die before any grandchildren can be gained. | |

Reggie Perrin (a BBC 2009 sitcom and remake of The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin): The series features a particularly obnoxious (and, thanks to the Imagine Spot inserts that were a motif of the programme, hilarious) incarnation of this kind of parent. Subverted in the original, where Reg hated his mother-in-law and had two independent adult(ish) children. Possibly it was felt that, as the actors were very slightly younger and middle-class people like the Perrins now have children rather later, they would be unlikely to have children that old, and the dynamic would be different if their children were still young. | |

The DCU: Vandal Savage wants his daughter Scandal now formerly of the Secret Six to have kids. This is not going to happen with Scandal's consent for a few reasons: 1) Scandal hates her father, 2) she is a lesbian with absolutely no interest in the opposite sex, and 3) she is convinced (with good reason) that the only reason Vandal wants grandchildren is so that he can harvest them for organs to sustain his immortality. Ironically, in the reboot version of the series it's implied he might get his way after all, when Scandal calls up Catman and tells him that after a lot of discussion she and her two wives have decided to start a family, and they want him to be their sperm donor. Who's going to carry the child is left ambiguous. Wonder Woman (2006): Even Wonder Woman gets this from her mother, Queen Hippolyta, when she introduces new love interest Tom Tresser during Gail Simone's run. Is no one safe? Granted, this was during a time when Diana and Hippolyta were the only two Amazons left which strongly influenced how they were thinking. And of course, Hippolyta was so desperate for a daughter that she moved the gods into miraculously creating Diana. She just really seems to like kids. She's not alone either: one Amazon led the others into revolt mostly out of envy that Hippolyta got to be a mother and she didn't. Somewhat justified given that Amazons were all innocently slain women brought back to life through magic, with some obviously being mothers in their former lives. Presumably, some still maintain the aspect of motherhood in their old life, but are denied it because of Amazon traditions (with Hippolyta being the exception, which leads to resentment.) One Amazon treated a dolly she made as her infant after she snapped. Doom Patrol: The Beard-Hunter in Grant Morrison's run still lives with his mother, who berates her son for never settling down and giving her grandchildren. Green Lantern: Bleez of the Red Lantern Corps, during her Origins Episode in Blackest Night: Tales of the Corps, was set up with suitors against her wishes because her mother wanted grandchildren. |

Futurama: Amy Wong's parents are an extreme example. They are so obsessed with getting Amy to have grandchildren, it almost seems like they care more about that than they care about Amy herself. To the point that when the latter got de-aged to her preteen years, they were too busy complaining about how they were never going to have grandchildren at this rate (and in Leo's case, cruelly tease Amy) to actually worry about their daughter's condition. They eventually do get grandkids, but they take one look at them, decide they didn't want grandkids that bad, and agree to Let Us Never Speak of This Again, much to Amy's confusion. | |

The Bible has this in "Book of Genesis", as the first thing God tells his living creations is to "Go forth and multiply". By extension, He also expects this from the animals. To drive the point home, after Adam and Eve sin and become mortal, God promises to multiply Eve's "conceptions," though this is possibly so there would be saints to replace the souls who would be damned. | |

While he complies with his wife's refusal to put Lianne into an Arranged Marriage, he foists numerous suitors on her. After she humiliates one of the more lewd suitors and calls her father off, he sends her to Gongmen City to be courted by Lord Shen, thus starting the plot. When thirty years later Lianne becomes expectant with Shen's child, the gravely ill Chang is happy enough for his estranged daughter to care about the child's gender or the fact that the father is the peacock he hates. He allows himself to die contently after he gives blessings for his daughter and grandchild. | |

Legacy of the Force: In Betrayal (the first book of the series), Leia inquires as to when she could become a grandmother. Her son Jacen shuts her down. Ironically, in typical Star Wars fashion, Leia already is a grandmother to Allana Djo, heir to the throne of Hapes. The nature of Hapan politics means Jacen and Tenel Ka (Queen Mother of Hapes) were unable to be together openly and thus Allana's parentage is known to only a handful of people. | |

Saturday Night Live: Exaggerated for laugh's in Season 47 Episode 9. Paul Rudd's character is directing a commercial asking moms what they want (as in things that can be bought and sold). The moms keep finding ways to shoehorn grandchildren into what they say. In Season 48, Episode 12, the last line of the "Protective Mom" sketch is Ms. Flores asking her son's girlfriend, "Now, where are my grandchildren?" assuring the couple in her own fussy way that she approves of their romance. In the sequel from Season 49, Episode 2 (in which the son has a new girlfriend), Ms. Flores goes so far as to suggest names. |

Tales from the Shadowhunter Academy: Maryse and Robert Lightwood in the story "Born To Endless Night", despite agreeing on very little else. To the extent that even with their history of Fantastic Racism, they are positively ecstatic when Alec and Magnus adopt an abandoned warlock baby. The head of the New York Institute and the Inquisitor of the Clave — both former members of Valentine's Circle! That they approve of the adoption the instant they find out about it, and proceed to drown Alec and Magnus in parenting advice, while imposing time limits on which of them gets to hold the baby for how long, makes it clear that they consider a warlock grandchild better than no grandchild. | |

Game of Thrones: Lord Walder Frey constantly expresses this. Although for him, it's less about the grandkids and more he wants his many, many children to finally get married and move out of his house. Tywin Lannister... as long as they're male grandkids from his eldest son. Ironically, he already has two of these but they're less than ideal, being officially Baratheons rather than Lannisters, and rather more importantly bastards born of incest between his son and daughter. |

Star Ocean: Till the End of Time: If you get Fayt's ending with Adray, Adray makes it clear that he intends for Fayt and his daughter Clair to get together for this purpose. Clair is not quite as supportive of this (she calls her father into the other room, then beats the crap out of him). It's a bit more subtle in his solo ending where he has Clair's subordinates in a push-up competition for the right to marry her. | |

White Sheep (RWBY): Salem is obsessed with having as many grandchildren as possible. Besides constantly trying to arrange a harem for her only son Jaune, she adopted Cinder so she could marry Jaune, and made sure Jaune was never taught about contraception at all. In Chapter 100, Salem tells Jaune that her son-in-law Qrow might well take his place as her favorite son because he hasn't left his bedroom (except to get food, Noodle Implements, and an unbroken bed) in the week since he married her daughter, while Jaune and Yang want to take their relationship slow. When an army needs a place to rest, Salem says there's enough room in the tower, because "I've been preparing for grandchildren for years." She is rather unconcerned that there are more than four hundred people who need rooms. It's mentioned that Salem and Nicholas renew their vows in a big ceremony every couple years in a not-so-subtle hint to her unmarried children that they need to get on with it already. They remain oblivious. |

Safe Havens: Jeanine apparently started texting Shondra once a day every day after Shondra turned thirty reminding her that she still wants grandchildren. It doesn't get much better for Samantha, either, once she marries Dave (and it doesn't help that basically everyone else wants her to have children too). Everyone finally gets their wish when Samantha gets pregnant...during the mission to Mars. | |

BOB â�¤ï¸� ABISHOLA: Chukwuemeka's mother Ogeche and girlfriend Kemi are constantly at each other's throats. It is eventually revealed that the reason why is because Ogeche wants grandchildren and Kemi — who has three grown children, grandchildren and a deceased husband — is too old to sire any more children. The two eventually reach a compromise: Kemi and Chukwuemeka can still see each other, while Chukwuemeka can find a surrogate to have children with. Chukwuemeka, unfortunately, has no say in this. | |

Son of the Sannin: Mei Terumi at one point complains about how much her parents were nagging her about having children so she could pass down her two bloodline limits, especially since she was busy leading the rebellion in Kirigakure to overthrow Yagura and end the Bloody Mist regime. The epilogue reveals that she and Zabuza had six children, since after their second child inherited both both bloodline limits, it wasn't enough for Mei's parents and they continued having them until the sixth one did it as well. When they tried to pressure her to have even more kids, she responded by having her tubes ligated. | |

Drowtales contains one of the most horrific instances of his trope in fiction with the relationship between Quain'tana and her daughter Mel'arnach. Basically, she couldn't have children anymore but needed an heir, so she wanted to get one from her daughter — by force. And to rub salt in the wound, once the child, Ariel (who was actually born from a consensual relationship with another elf turned giant spider was born), she was taken away from her real mother and raised without knowing her true lineage or even seeing her real mother for 10 years, did not know their real relationship for over 30 chapters. Minus a single, non-canon and very spoilerific chibi page (which indulge in Black Comedy anyway) this is not played for laughs at all, and many fans consider it a Moral Event Horizon crossing for Quain'tana. After a 10 year timeskip it's also shown that in exchange for not killing Mel after she came back after running away (again) Quain has gotten her wish and Mel already had two more children with a third on the way, and though her circumstances are better Mel still lives in a Gilded Cage and the two young children are being raised elsewhere. | |

High School Dx D: Issei's parents are happy when they see him genuinely interacting with girls. They expressed a fear that they would never have grandchildren because Issei is a perverted idiot who spends most of his time ogling girls or his Porn Stash instead of actually talking to them. This is a bit less funny with later revelations that Issei was actually their third attempt at a child (having two older siblings who died of miscarriages), so their complex on this is a bit less purely comedic. As for actually wanting grandkids? Well, they got their wish. All 20 of them. | |

Child of the Storm has Frigga, though she's more laidback than most examples. Her lifespan means that she's perfectly happy to wait-when you still have a couple thousand years left in the tank, a few decades won't matter too much. Also, considering that she's already got a grandson to spoil (and is the mother of Loki), it could very well be that she's just doing it to wind up Thor. | |

The only problem with that idea was that Papa Smurf was also in love with Smurfette, and in an alternate timeline even marries her. | |

Night in the Woods: Mae's mother mistakenly begins to suspect that Mae's worsening health in the third act is actually morning sickness, and the possibility that her daughter is pregnant is the only thing that breaks the concern that she was otherwise displaying for Mae's condition. | |

The Bolt Chronicles: Played with in "The Coffee Shop." Bolt is concerned that his master Penny is into her mid-twenties and not married, specifically saying, "At this rate, I'm never gonna have grandchildren." This technically isn't possible, however (as Mittens painstakingly explains to him), given that he's not Penny's dad, he's a dog and she's a human, and he's eight years younger than Penny. | |

John Putnam Thatcher: In East is East, the one scene where Dr. Khan's parents appear has them urging him to date while pointing out that his sister has given them grandkids, but they'd like more. He's already married to a woman who is helping him embezzle money. In Something in the Air, Mitch Scovil's sister-in-law has recently had a baby, and during Thanksgiving dinner, Scovil's mother-in-law accidentally shows frustration that Mitch and his wife haven't had kids. |

Mahabharata: The conflict in the epic is set in motion because of the Puru desire to have as many grandkids as possible. Queen Satyavati wants Puru heirs really really soon and she is willing to do anything to get them. So she makes her very teenage son sleep with two adult women until he dies. Then she makes her stepson Vyasa impregnate his two widowed wives almost immediately even when Vyasa asks her to wait for a year. Of course, the sons who were born were blind and sickly. The first son conceives his sons artificially and the second son asks his wives to bear children from the Gods. | |

Walkyverse: College Roomies from Hell!!!: Blue's grandmother (father's side). It's Walky!: Joyce's mother, big time. She even asked the bridal store if they had dresses with elastic waistbands so Joyce wouldn't let a silly thing like conceiving out of wedlock stop her (which shows just how much she wants grandbabies, as she's pretty strictly Christian otherwise) and was busted poking holes in their condoms (which, is implied to have worked in at least one alternate timeline, as the moment Walky busts her, fifteen of the future children Head Alien kidnapped disappeared). When she's shot during Joyce and Walky's wedding she flat out blackmails Joyce into agreeing to give her grandchildren by making Joyce think it was her dying wish (she actually got shot in the butt). She's also disappointed to meet Joyce and Walky's Kid from the Future Bobby, as she wants a grandbaby. |

The Innsmouth Legacy (a sequel to The Shadow Over Innsmouth by H. P. Lovecraft): In Winter Tide, Aphra (one of the two surviving Deep One hybrids from the original Innsmouth Raid) is nonplussed that all the Elders, especially her grandfather, want her to breed as quickly as possible. Still traumatised from her decades in a US government concentration camp where she saw everyone except her brother die, she's really not happy at the potential heartbreak involved in raising children. | |

Pokémon Reset Bloodlines: A couple of cases pop up: The elders of the Blackthorn Dragon Clan are pressuring Clair to get married so as to secure a future heir. She's not amused in the least. Lorelei's parents (half-jokingly) tell her that they would like if she and her boyfriend Frey brought them grandkids for Christmas. While they're not adverse to the idea, they're not in a rush to settle down yet. |

Starfall (Star vs. the Forces of Evil): A very dark example with Tom's mother Ishtar. She has wanted Tom to marry Princess Star since before Star was even born, and makes it very clear that it's for no other purpose than because she wants a grandchild from Star's line. It doesn't matter that both Tom and Star are deeply in love with other people; Ishtar will do anything to make sure they are together. As it turns out, Ishtar is the second-to-last step in a centuries old breeding program to bring all thirteen lines of royal magic into one. Star is the last line. If Star has Tom's child, the girl will inherit both Ishtar's twelve lines and Star's, making her an invincible goddess. | |

Baby Boom (Shawna Canon) (a Miraculous Ladybug fic): This trope kicks off the plot — Mabel LaCrux is so frustrated by her daughter's lack of interest in children that she gets akumatized into "Fairy Grandmother" and goes around the city spreading Mind Control gas that causes thousands of people to get busy making babies. Including not only the heroes who could have stopped her, but the villain who was responsible for the akuma. (When Mabel comes back to her senses, she's horrified.) | |

Belisarius Series: At the end of the series, Belisarius asks one more favor from his beloved stepson and daughter-in-law. "As soon as you can manage it, I'd like a lot of grandchildren."
