Absurdly Youthful Mother: Difference between revisions

** In order of oldest to youngest: {{spoiler|Mina Tamura}}, daughter Sakura, 17. Umeko Tamura (nee Sakagami), daughter Mina, 15;<ref>and the father was 10</ref> son Makoto, 20. Hitomi Mizumura, son {{spoiler|Makoto}}, ''12''.

* In ''[[Toradora!]]'', male lead Ryuuji Takasu was born when his mother, Yasuko, was about 16-17.

** Nagisa gave birth to Ushio at age 21. {{spoiler|And then, she fell victim to [[Death by Childbirth]]. And years later, she got better.}} She also most likely possesses her parents genes for mysterious eternal youth.

** Seems to be very common in Clannad or just [[Key Visual Arts|Key's]] works in general. Tomoya's mother gave birth to him shortly after marrying her husband. His parents married when his father was still in school.

* In the [[Kate Thompson]] book ''Children of the Night'', the teenaged protagonist's mother was only 14 when she had him. He realizes that his father, who he never knew, must have been an adult, as she would have told him if his father was a classmate of hers. This squicks him out, as the idea that an adult could take advantage of a young girl like that is inherently disturbing.

* Gender reversed in ''[[The Shipping News]]'', where the protagonist calculates that his grandfather must have been about 11 when he fathered a child. His aunt's reply is simply: "You don't know Newfoundlanders."

* In [[Randall Garrett]]'s ''[[Lord Darcy]]'' stories, every story that Mary, Dowager Duchess of Cumberland is in also contains an explanation that she's a year younger than her stepson, the current Duke of Cumberland. She was his father's second wife, and it was a [[May–December Romance]]—she was in her 20's, he in his fifties when they married.

* In [[Clan of the Cave Bear]], Ayla is ''eleven'' when she has her son Durc - her sister Uba isn't much off that when she gets pregnant. Justified in-universe in that the Clan have a lifespan of about thirty and go through menopause in their early twenties, and so have children early, and Ayla was held to their standards.

 

==== [[Web Comics]] ====

* In ''[[Shadowgirls]]'', Charon had Becka at 15, and Chrissy had her daughter Missy at around 17.

 

* ''[[RahXephon]]'' has {{spoiler|Quon, Ayato's "mom", who has been kept in stasis. Making her the same age as he is, and about alf the age of his twin brother Itsuki (Ayato too was kept in a kind of stasis)}}

* ''[[Lyrical Nanoha]]'' has Hayate and the Wolkenritter, [[Wise Beyond Their Years|Hayate]] acts as a mother figure at age nine, while the Wolkenritter are likely [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old|centuries old]]

* In ''[[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni]]'', it's revealed in the TIPS/ Rei OVA that {{spoiler|Hanyuu, who looks about anywhere from 8-12, in fact had a daughter way back when. She was an adult when she had her child in life but appears as a young girl in order to get Rika to better relate with her}}.

* In ''[[Dragon Ball GT]]'', Goku is de-aged to childhood as the result of the Dragonballs, making him approximately the same age as his granddaughter, 10-year-old Pan.

* In ''[[Otaku no Musume-san]]'', Taeko and her mother are respectively [[Younger Than They Look|Younger]] and [[Older Than They Look]]. Taeko is occasionally assumed to be the mother although she's still in high school.

* Kusanagi in ''[[The Sky Crawlers]]'' looks about twelve to fifteen, but is {{spoiler|[[Older Than They Look|older]]}} than she looks.

** Despite the show/game being filled with [[Generic Cuteness]], Tomoya specifically states Sanae's youthful appearance is strange and mysterious. This is made extremely apparent when you [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckH-mSrme6k compare her to the midwife who delivered little Ushio]. This midwife was actually a classmate of Sanae's in high school.

** She also fits in the "pregnancy at a young age folder" since its stated that she was pregnant at a young age. Combine it with this folder and it comes as no surprise that she is also a [[Grandma, What Massive Hotness You Have!|hot grandma]], who perfectly could to be mistaken by the mother of her granddaughter, at least.

==== [[Film]] ====

* In Alfred Hitchcock's ''[[North by Northwest]]'', Cary Grant was 55 years-old. Jessie Royce Landis, who played his mother, was 63 years-old, meaning she would have to have given birth when she was 8 years old.

* [[Angela Lansbury]] was nine years and three months older than [[Elvis Presley]], her son in ''Blue Hawaii''.

* In ''[[Earthquake]]'' (1974), Lorne Greene and Ava Gardner—only seven years apart in age—played father and daughter.
