How old were you when you first became a godparent?

it has been years ago. i don't exactly remember, maybe when i was 20 or 21 years all. i still studied in college in that time. i almost refused as i thought we have to get married already to be eligible for being a godfather. he is my friend's youngest brother, and he cannot think of anyone else but me i felt nervous when the ceremony was being done. i feel like michael corleone being the godfather of his nephew/niece? that's the only time i became a godfather. it's said that being a godfather is not only for ceremonial purpose. we godfathers and godmothers are to take care of spiritual growth of our godchildren. i don't know, i never meet him anylonger, as i move to another city.

I am not a Godparent. Being a Godparent is a huge responsibility. You are responsible for making sure they know all about God and that you are a good role model. I don't think I am ready for that.

I guess I was 15 back then. A friend of my dad asked me if I could be a godparent to his child. I accepted the offer. Now I already have 4 godchildren. Many of my childhood friends are already married. I am expecting more godchildren to come.

I was only seventeen years old then. And my first godchild is already in college. OMG, am I that old? lol But since then I became a godmother almost every year.

I was 38 when I became my great newphews godparent I love him dearly and his mother as well,I felt very lucky that I was the one she chose to take care of her baby if god forbid something happened to her,I was 40 when I recieved my first grandchild and after having three girls of my own the grandson got quit spoiled and he is growing into a fine young man but he still knows how to get to his grandma.I cant say I am rich with money but I can say I am rich with love and that matters more to me.You have a great night.

Are you a Godparent or a Grandparent? they are to different things. A Grandparent is already part of the family while a Godparent can be anyone the parents choose. To be a Grandparent you have to have a child old enough to have children or be married to someone who had such a child. I think we have had this conversation before and it's my guess that the old English language is messing you up. It is not the most precise of languages.

I don't exactly remember when i first became a godparent... but for sure i was still in college then... and i didn't have any money to give my first godchild... but i gave a gift instead... right now i have almost 20 godchildren... that is already a lot... but i am still not rich... so i don't think there is a connection between wealth and the number of godchildren a person has...

i was sixteen when i first became a godparent...my friend got pregnant sudden and i wasn't in the position to say no, in fact i am just a proud friend willing to be a grandparent because for me that's a privileged to be proud of...though yeah every occasions i am obliged to give out presents but i feel so happy with it...though there maybe times that i am not able to give out a thing i just make it up some other time

when i was 19 i became a Godparent of my firts niece then followed that daughter of my cousin.i think its not nesessary to give money.all i have to give more and often is attention since we are living very close coz they said godparent is the second parents

I was just 15 years old when I first became a godmother to a baby boy. Now, if my memory serves me right, I lost count after fifteen godchildren. Well, that's already too many for me -- maybe that's exactly the reason why I am not rich still. Hahaha Anyway, my first godson is the first born child of an aunt, a first cousin of my mother. For many years since then, that is, without fail, my aunt's family regularly comes to visit my family during the Christmas season. Of course, at first, there was just Dad, Mom and Baby Boy. However, in a few years time, there had been three additional kids in my aunt's family. Since they live a bit afar from us, it was as if expected that each and everyone of them gets a Christmas present. My godson finally stopped coming with his family when he was about 14 years old and almost the same thing happened with the younger siblings eventually. Years went by, my aunt got widowed, her kids grown up and she's still on with her yearly tradition -- last Christmas, she had two grandkids with her! Cheers!

I became godparent since I was 19 years old. I can't believe it that in my young age I can be a grandmother.

I was on my 20th when I became a godfather. The accountant in my school requested me to be one of the godfather of her daughter alongside with my girlfriend. I couldn't get to resist the offer as everybody's telling me that being a godfather to a child is a luck as you were able to get chosen by that angel. Got nothing to loose anyway and I enjoy the feeling of it for the first time.

are we talking bout godchildren here or grandchildren..anyway i became a godmother when i was only 23.

I became a godmother when I was 15, and I am not rich either. :)

I become a godfather to my cousin eight years ago when I was 30. It was a nice experience and it made me feel responsible for someone else who is a relative.

Well why Im not lucky with money I dont know if they go on grandbabies .. lol I have 10 biological grandbabies and 3 that call us their grandparents so I want to know where this money is. I became a grandparent for the first time when I was 36 years old. I know it is young but now at 43 Im still young enough to chase and play although it can wear me out! We are also raising one of our grandbabies and have had her from birth. Im really glad that Im on the younger side now!

Hi richiem, how are you my friend? I only have one godson and it was when I had 29 years old. Have a good day.

Haha, if that's true, I should be well off!! I have two Godchildren. 22? You are just a baby!! LOL

i never been godfather. I am 45 years old. Please tell me your experience as god father please

I was 25 years old when i first became a godparent. It was my neighbors baby girl and now she grown up to be a pretty little girl. I didnt got the chance to give her gift last christmas and im not sure if i can this christmas since i dont have a clue anymore how big she is and what she like to have on christmas day. Since i move here in US i didnt have any communication with her. I'll probably find something special next year when i visit my country.
