[quote=Anonymous]You are being way too sensitive. You aren’t a particularly old parent for today and this area, but you amis aren’t a particularly young one. At 29 I was asked repeatedly if I was my oldest child’s nanny. Both my male and female child were “misgendered” many times in their baby to preschool years. My son grew long hair in late middle school and had it happen then too. Most people aren’t being mean, they just aren’t paying that much attention. My mother had her first child at 19 and her second at 43. Out and about with her oldest daughter and the baby inevitably resulted in her being called Grandma. (Which she actually became at 38). Another sister, 3 years my senior, had a baby at 19 and was a grandmother at 40. Her oldest grandchild is 1 month younger than my second child. You being Grandma isn’t anymore out of the realm of possibility than you being mom is. [/quote]
