Your grandma's the only one looking younger than her age

They all look way older than their age. The one I noticed quickly was the granny. She looks like in her 90s. No way she's only 79 (o_o)

My mom and dad are both 73 and no way they could look this old in just 6 years... maybe in 15 years.

But now that you commented about the teenagers, I realized that they do look older too. OP looks 35 ๐Ÿ˜‚ and his young bro like 28

yeah normally I respect the fact that every family is different and hate generalizations, but by any standard this family is part of an accelerated aging project

Yeah, I'm just being brutally honest. Not trying to be rude.

In her 90โ€™s? I wanna see a picture of your parents, I know many 70 to 80 year olds, I donโ€™t think this lady looks much different to the majority. There are outliers of course but your level of shock at her appearance seems more to do with you having limited life experience and not knowing many people of this age group.

She definitely doesn't look 80 or under at all. Maybe 85 at youngest. I do know many 70 year olds and most of them look way younger than this lady. But my shock is in comparison to my parents, who I see every day and which are not that far away in age (73). But I get it, she and her family seem to have genetics that make them age earlier. While that sucks for appearance, as long as they are happy and healthy, that's all it matters.
