Guest Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 (edited) <_< The second half is what I keep going back to..."my daughters mother" pretending I'm a woman...(not that I've ever done that :)then my daughters mother would be me. I think it's either Mother or Barbera. This puzzle was submitted by riddler. Barbera's daughter is my daughter's mother. Who am I to Barbera? Mother Grandmother Daughter I am Barbera Great Grand Mother Great Grand Daughter Edited May 15, 2008 by Barron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 Yeah the answer is that you are barbara's daughter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 Out of the answers given: Daughter. In real life, I would be more likely a Son in Law Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 The puzzle asks: Who am I to Barbara - NOT who is Barbara to me. Hence the correct answer is ... Daughter. Unless of course I am a male. Then the correct answer is not in the choices listed, it's Son-in-Law. maybe some1 said this, but, bonanova, it cant be son in law, i think, because it says barbara's _Daughter_ is my daughter's mother, who am i to barbara, there for, if you were male, it would not work because it stated B.'s daughter's daughter's mom. i am pretty sure atleast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barbera's daughter is my daughter's mother. Who am I to Barbera? If Barbara is the mother of my wife, then Barbara's daughter (my wife) is my daughter's mother (assuming my wife and I have a daughter together).

Guest Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 If the speaker is female, then you are Barbara's daughter. not necessarily. you could be her daughter-in-law. nowhere does it say that barbera's daughter was not lesbian. but, assuming that we have to pick from the choices given, the answer is daughter.

Guest Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 (edited) In the consideration of a possibility, let us take the relationship between bibical characters Lot and Moab: Lot_______________ Lot's wife | | |_____ Lot's daughter | Moab Lot was both father and grandfather to Moab. Moab's mother was Lot's daughter. but 'Father' is not given as possibility. So, if we must be limited to one of the six, we may exclude this from our list of possible answers. Let us look at another extreme example where incest was not involved, yet all family members are named Barbera (substituted as B in the tree below). ... B ___ B B ___ B B ___ B B ___ B B ___ B B ___ B B ___ B B ___ B | | | | | | | | B _____ B B _____ B B _____ B B ______B | | | | B _____________ B B _____________ B | | B ('my daughter') __________________ B | B _____________________________________________________ | B ... All six given - Mother, Grandmother, Daughter, 'I am Barbera', Great Grand Mother, Great Grand Daughter - and many others are possible solutions. But for the six given, the other possible solutions should be excluded. Thus, even given six possible answers, and knowing there is an answer, the puzzle does not provide enough information to be "solvable". Aside from extreme cases, limited only to the knowns given, we have only Barbera, Barbera's daughter, and I. And, if we are to remain within the limited scope, the only solution that could be derived from the list is Daughter.

Guest Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 Here's a mathematical way to look at it B-1=M+1-1 -->B-1=M Negative represents newer generation and positive represents older Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfgang Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 I am no one of the above choices....but I am...her Son-in-law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 I agree with all the answers which say I am Barbara's daughter. If Barbra's daughter is my daughter's mother, then what am I to Barbara. My daughter's mother is me so that means Barbara's daughter is me. I am Barbara's daughter. I really like this puzzle because it is dead simple and it's very like the one my mum told me the other day.... Brother's and sisters I have none, but that man's father is my father's son. Who is 'that man'? 'That man' is your son and you are his father Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
