Please, tell me..

At any point during your life were you given a textbook that acts as an age reference guide for people?

Confused? You should be. I am.

Basically, the thing that has always annoyed me is when people say something along the lines of:

"Oh, You don't look 18, I thought you only looked about 14"

or

"Oh, you're 16, Shit, I thought you looked about 25!"

I mean, has anyone ever actually seen a textbook diagram of what a 14/16/18/25 year old should look like?

Isn't age in the mind?

Yes, yes it is.
