Explanation

The family has 7 members: 1 grandfather, 1 grandmother, 1 father (the grandfather is also a father), 1 mother (the grandmother is also a mother), their son (Mr. Robson), his wife, and their child. The counts work out because family members have multiple roles - the grandfather is also a father-in-law and a grandfather, the grandmother is also a mother-in-law and a grandmother, etc.
