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? #life #history #interesting

It's natural to have initial impressions, but try to get to know her beyond appearances. She might surprise you with her personality and values. Your son sees something special in her, and that could be a great starting point for understanding.
