I am 34 and my mom was 28 when she had me and 30 when she had my brother. I always thought they were more or less the same age as all other parents. I had mine at 29 and 31 so [b]my parents are VERY young grandparents[/b] and very involved. So to the PP that was complaining about her parents being old, she is the one that should have had kids younger if she wanted younger grandparents [/quote]

So your mom was 57 when she first became a grandparent?  I wouldn't consider that "VERY young."  Honestly, I wouldn't even consider that "young."

VERY young would be in early 30s (in other words, woman has a baby around age 15-16, and then that child also has their first born around 15-16.)   "Young grand parent" to me would be 40s--woman has baby in her early 20s, and then that child has their first born in their early 20s.   Anything in the 50s seems pretty standard, and 60s+ is getting to be "older grandparent."  In other words, your mom just barely squeaked by in not being an "old grandma."
