That's her problem. She's applied to more than 5 apt complexes for a manager job and they all think she's a teenager or in her early twenties. Won't take her seriously despite her decade long 100+ unit manager experience.

Recently she got carded for buying a video game. The clerk didnt think she was 18 and my son Brandon who was 12, they though that was her brother, lol.

LOL, Hey in later years she may come to look at it like a good thing man.

It's only a problem if the police pull you over for running around with a youngen.

my wife and me are hitting the mid 40's, she doesn't mind getting carded one bit.

All jokes aside, you son looks almost exactly like my older brother when he was 12.

I suspect there are a fixed (though large) number of Caucasian phenotypes.

Recently she got carded for buying a video game. The clerk didnt think she was 18 and my son Brandon who was 12, they though that was her brother, lol.

That can get awkward at certain stages. For a while I had to conspicuously and loudly address my mother as "MOM" in public in order to avert accusatory stares. Sometimes I'd have to do it a few times before they got it.
