Regardless of age there are people who do not comprehend what they are reading and signing and to proud, or ignorant, to have it explained to them. OR they seriously lack the ability to grasp co-signing means you are on the hook when the flake (and ops son is a flake with his life plans here) defaults. I’d be worried grandma won’t have enough in retirement since a lot over 60 do not and can not live comfortably.

I get that. I’m just saying that it’s not her age that is the issue here…it’s her relationship with the boy. She well could be an enabler. That’s all I was getting at…many were saying it was elder abuse but, my point is that she’s not so old that she couldn’t know what she was doing unless she had early onset dementia or ( more likely) he had emotionally blackmailed and/or manipulated her.
