Here are all the results with descriptions

The Traditional Grandparent
You're most likely to be a traditional type of grandparent. Firm, loving, and not too involved with your grandchildren's discipline or upbringing, you understand that it's your job to provide a stable influence for your kin while keeping from becoming overbearing. You will love your grandchildren dearly, but you know that their parents know what's best for them.

The Warm, Fuzzy Grandparent
You're most likely to be a warm and fuzzy type of grandparent. When you see your grandchildren, your heart just melts inside. You bake cookies, fly airplanes, build forts and knit them quilts. You want them over all the time, and when they come over, you cater to their every little desire. You're destined to smell like baking flour and roses, and to be every child's dream grandparent. You're also bound to give the most amazing hugs in the world.

The Parent Grandparent
Let's face it. You are going to love your grandchildren so much that you're likely to believe that it's in your their best interest to be brought up by you. Little by little, you will begin to take over your grandchildren's lives-first by offering free childcare and then by offering to pick them up from school-eventually leading up to volunteering to be the children's legal guardian and paying for their college education.

The Wise Old Grandparent
You are destined to become a Wise Old Grandparent. Your grandchildren will come to depend on your important anecdotes and valuable advice, from the crib to their first days on the job and beyond. You'll be quoted and remembered for centuries to come, and your great-great-great-great grandchildren will grow up hearing your old stories and sayings.

The Absentee Grandparent
According to this quiz, you are destined to be an Absentee Grandparent. By the time your children have children, you'll have done the whole parenting thing, and there's nothing you want more than to enjoy yourself doing adult things in adult places. Like hitting the blackjack tables in Las Vegas, or going on a senior citizen only cruise around the world. Yeah, sure-the kids are adorable and you love them. That's why you always remember to mail them souvenirs and send postcards every chance you get.

The Cross, Crotchety, Cranky Grandparent
You don't want to be the 3 C's-cross, crotchety and cranky-but you can't help it. You're the grandparent that yells 'Get off my lawn' to neighborhood kids retrieving balls from your yard and shakes your fist at cars that drive past your house at high speeds. Your future grandchildren will quickly learn to stay away from your breakables, your flower garden, your valuable property, and eventually, from you! And that's exactly what you want. You'll love them and all, but kids are kids-and you just won't have the patience to deal with them.
