Been called Gma twice. Once when E was about 4 days old and it was said over a loud speaker at a clinic!!!!! "_________'s grandmother is waiting" and I said "I'm his mother" (was shocked!) and then once in manhattan in a parking garage, the attendent who was from Africa asked me if I was his gma and I said dryly

You know, you should be more circumspect with the things you say as you seem to rely on tips for a living and proceeded to tip him half what I would have.

It still amazes me as I thought i looked great! I will say it depends where I am and who I meet because there are places where the mothers do tend to be younger.
