When working with grob callbacks, it can be helpful to understand a
-grob's @qq{ancestry}. Most grobs have @qq{parents} which influence the
+grob’s ancestry. Most grobs have parents which influence the
positioning of the grob. X- and Y-parents influence the horizontal and
vertical positions for the grob, respectively. Additionally, each
parent may have parents of its own.
-Unfortunately, there are several aspects of a grob's ancestry that can
+Unfortunately, there are several aspects of a grob’s ancestry that can
lead to confusion:
-* The types of parents a grob has may depend on context. * For some

-may be related to a grob in multiple ways. * The concept of
-@qq{generations} is misleading.
