Your grandchildren (I won't have any) will probably struggle with things like water and food availability, possibly famine and I wouldn't be surprised if wars break out over these things. I also don't know if it will necessarily be grandchildren. It might very well be getting pretty bad by the time we're thinking about retirement.
I'm hoping for the best and I hope I'm wrong but this is what it looks like to me, based on various reports and such that I see. The temperature graph is clearly exponential (at least for now) so the next 1.5 degrees are going to come much faster than the previous. I won't be surprised if we live to see 5, which is generally considered apocalyptic.
And we haven't even started hitting the brakes, not even slightly. We're still producing more CO2 every single year than the previous. So yeah, I'm not optimistic. If you want to be that's fine and I'll happily support any proper action. But there's nothing I can do beyond live my best life while I can.
