Last week my son brought his girlfriend over to meet us. They're both college kids in their 20s.
Only she doesn't look her age. With her tattooed eyebrows, lips and pierced face she looks 30 years old, she wears very bright makeup and dresses very provocatively. All in all, she gives the impression of a girl who has been through fire, water and copper pipes. And I'm like only 39 years old myself and I'm shocked that she looks not much younger than me. Even my husband at first thought it was my coworker and not my son's girlfriend... What to do?

It's interesting how appearance can sometimes mislead our perceptions of age. It might be beneficial to focus on her personality and interests rather than just her looks. Building a connection could help ease any initial shock!
