I think you should ask them if they have children, and then ask when they had them. I would bet that if they have kids, they had them young.

I’m nearly 24.

And today? One of the college students I work with told me I look like I’m 12.

I was a little offended, espeically because I’ve spent SO long telling myself I finally looked older.

Boo.

(Also? I KNOW I’m going to get that young mother crap when I start having kids in a few years. I LOVE it when people think one of my baby cousins is mine. It’s kind of weird how happy it makes me, actually.)

Next time you should say, “No, of course this baby isn’t mine! It’s my kid sister’s.”

i can sometimes pass for being a high schooler…but now that i’m getting older, i get upset when i don’t get carded.

*huff* “you’re telling me i look 21? how rude! i’ll be taking my drunkeness elsewhere, thank you”

…i’ll be 26 soon.

When I really was 16 I used to keep my nephew all the time. I took him everywhere with me. Being my nephew, the child has an uncanny resemblance to me. People would do the same thing. I always told them he was mine. Then when they’d give me that “You look so young, you poor thing” look I very happily asked “So how many grandkids do you have?”
I figure if they were going to insult me about my age, I’d insult them right back.
Probably not the nicest thing I ever did, but it sure made me feel better.

I swear, if you don’t get married at 26 and have a baby at 28, people think you’re some kind of freak, regardless of what end of the spectrum you are on.

I would be tempted to say something really obnoxious, like “Yeah, I totally wanted to have a baby after I saw ‘Knocked Up’ and saw how, like, cool it is and stuff.” Or maybe, “No, I’m just part of a psychological study that is documenting the arseholish attitudes people have toward young mothers in our society.”

Yes. Have had the same awkward conversations about my baby cousins. But more maddening to me?

I get underestimated all the time at work because I’m young. So I let them underestimate me. Then when I crush them like bugs, I get the joy of seeing a look of utter shock wash over their faces.

Great post, I spent my whole 20s being told i was way too young for anything (babies, marriage, my job, buying booze) and now my 20s have passed me by because i though i was as well.

No way!

Now im heading into my 30s, i still look young (usually i get chatted up by 21 year olds, just call me Mrs Robinson) but i get the reverse (where is the baby etc)

Just because you look young doesnt mean you are mentally too young. Just tell these folk to worry about their own live not yours… and honey, you are gonna love it when you reach 30. I certainly do!

I’ve always got the you look wayyy younger than you actually are thing. Like even now I still sometimes get 12,16…etc… I’m 23! Oh and having an actual baby? You should have seen the looks I got when I was waddling around preggo.

Even now, my boyfriend’s co workers ask (he’s 26) They all tell me I look wayyyy too young and ask me how old I am. I mean, what do they think, that my bf is robbing the craddle?

I think it will be even more interesting now since we’re going to have another baby and I’ll be preggo pushing a stroller. My family has been great though; they tell me I do way better with my son (he’s special needs) then they could have, especially as far as doctors are concerned (ie not letting them get away with crap like not being able to explain why they want to give him meds)
