I’m not sure how interesting this is but I guess it’s pretty unusual – my dad was 56 and my mum was 29 when I was born. I can’t say it’s anything I really found strange as a young kid, but as I got older it became evident that it was a big old age gap. AMA!
My parents had a 27 year age gap – AMA

Is your father still around? What are your relations? Was he really involved in parenting? Did you feel awkward as a kid that your dad is older than other parents?
What were the relations between your parents like?
Was your dad able to do all the things the other parents were able to do? Was it weird having an older dad? Is he still alive?
So when one of your parents was 27 years old the other was a newborn?
Did your mom marry him for money?
How did they meet?
How old were they when they first started dating?
When did you start to pick up the age gap?
Did you grow up in a cult?
Your Mum ever explain to you why she opted for a much older guy?
My dad was 56 and my mom was 33 when I was born. I’m 41 now. It’s neat that our circumstances are so similar.
Wow! Mine had an 18 year ago gap and I thought that was big! Were their interests and the things they’d do with you very different?
Ya da’ a fidler
That is disturbing af
26 years for the gap between mine!
I dont have a question but it made me think of my grandma’s parents who were 60 and 20 when they met and had her lol
Are your parents Celine Dion and Rene Angelil?
how is your mom now? has she dated anyone else since the passing of your father? im sorry for your loss
What would you consider the maximum viable age gap between people, for them to still be able to be good parents?
Any siblings?
I’m 44 and my wife is 29 pregnant with our first kid. Medium terrified that I’m gonna get too old before he or she grows up, but I’m doing everything I can to stay in shape.
Did any kids make fun of how old your dad was?
Were you ever ashamed that he was so old?
Did you notice any differences in the way your friends’ parents operated compared to yours?
My parents have a generation of differences, my father is from the 50s born the same month as Ron Jeremy and my mother from the 70s
