How old are your parents?

My dad turned 70 last year and it struck me that my parents are getting old. They still act young (especially him) but still that number, 70, is a little scary. My mom is 69. How old are your parents? Do they seem old to you?

My parnts are younger a little bit than yours. My father is 63 and will be turning 64 this May. My mother is 61 years of age, will be having her next birthday this July. They're really getting older now and feeling sad about it.

My mom will be 51 this year i believe. And it did strike me that my mom is getting older when her hair was growing back in it came in grey, but she had always dyed it before she had the chemo, so it never occured to me that she was grey under there! She doesn't seem old to me though. . she's still my mom! lol i dont want to think about her getting old.

My father is 46 and my mother is 43. I am 23. They dont seem to old yet. I know they are getting up there. When they hit 70 that will be amazing because that means that Ill be like late 40s.

My mother will be turning 74 this year while my dad passed away 17 years ago. I'm aware that my mom is getting older everyday and it makes me lonely sometimes that she's old already. I don't see much difference in her attitude except that at times she always repeats what she says. I love her and will want to spend more time with her. I'll pray that she'll always be healthy and happy.

My dad is 61 and my mum is 54, they dont seem to have changed to me to tell you the truth, apart from my dad has thickened around the waist and is going grey, my mum still looks about 10 years younger than her age and they both have bags of energy and live life to the full. So I dont think that they seem old to me, but when I think too much about my dads age, I get a bit sad because he is getting older and the thoughts that follow are just too sad to really think about for too long.
