Young-looking grandmother (I've Got a Secret 1/8/62)

Appearing are three generations from Queens: Mrs. Sutherland and her daughter Mrs. Lippman, who holds infant Kevin. It seems that Mrs. Lippman is Kevin's mother, but the secret is, "My mother [Arlene Hearn] is backstage ... the lady holding me is my grandmother." Peter Lawford substitutes for Bill Cullen.

It all depends on the mother’s ages when they had their kids. If grandma had her daughter at age 17 (got married right out of high school), then her daughter had her son also right out of high school at 17/18. Grandma would be young, still. Grandma would be between 31-33 years old. Daughter would look older cause of the hairstyles back then.

Being a child of that time, I can tell you we knew what a pencil was used for even at that young age. Did you see how he knew to pick up the paper card to write, or most likely scribble on. I don't want to give him too much credit. Parents would just teach their child that it was sharp and not to poke themselves in the eye with it. Kids are smart that way when taught correctly. Just like kids that young today want to play with your phone and appear to know almost intuitively how to use it. The phone is now kids modern day pencil and paper, and just about anything else for entertainment. I would venture to say kids today wouldn't know what a pencil is at that age. Parents would make sure they are nowhere near one.

Technically, yes, but it's not as though some have "bad genes" by nature. It's a product of thousands of years of psychopaths forcing something besides the habitat and diet they were intended for upon them, with human "civilization" becoming more and more remote from that normative state of existence all the time, reflecting the disdain of the psychopaths for paradise, which the subhumans regarded as a prison, which is what the Matrix movie series is about in metaphor, and the fact that it is based on so-called Kabbalah and yet totally parallels Gnosticism in its values and views shows that they are one and the same, regardless of nominal nonsense "refutations" from "rabbis". Of course the psychopaths are subject to it themselves with their "absence of ego" meaning they don't associate themselves with their material forms, but the "divine sparks" they believe they have within them, that delusion being a bi product of psychopathy and a telling accounting of their view of mortal existence.

It’s not a cheery story - just the result of him and then his son growing up amidst social deprivation, alcohol and drugs. They both fathered their first child at about thirteen. He went on to have several more before he was even eighteen.

@@melvawages7143 Yes, sadly it was that type of case, except that he wasn’t dodging paternity.

Was Betsey pregnant?

[@icturner23]

“What?!”

[@tonyperez2204]

Wow! They are not even Latino or black. Lol My aunt had my cousin at 16 or 17. Her daughter had a child at 15. Her kid had a child at 18. That little girl is 10. My aunt is only 65 and already a great grand mom. Crazy !

[@KevinChantal]

I am 24 and already a grandpa. I was 12 when my son was born and he is also 12 and last week his daughter was born.

Don't be so silly

SAM!

[@angelab4156]

This is nothing. I've seen 5 generations where all the mom's had a baby by the time they were 16. They were pictured in the newspaper.

[@Celisar1]

Angela B Hardly something to be proud of.

[@deborahsanders6762]

When I had my oldest son my great grandmother was still living. We had 5 generations. I had him young (17). Mom had me at 19. My grandmother was 23 when she had Mom. Great Grandmother, not sure of age, but it was in her 20s, my grandma was her 3rd or 4 th child. And she wasn’t a child bride.

I am amazed how Gary Moore pokes that lit cigarette up the ladies back. He has to be the most inconsiderate smoker on TV.

Loretta Lynn was a grandmother at 26 years old.

[@peternagy-im4be]

Please don't be silly

[@bethdavis7812]

I see nothing remarkable about this---many grandmothers thru out America are even younger looking. Notice the grandmother would not say her age. For all we know the grandmother had her daughter at 15 or 16 and her daughter was also young when the baby was born. When the grandmother did not give her age it tells me she was ashamed of how young she was when she had the baby's mother.

[@cwayzums]

Except….Grandma does look like your typical grandma at the age of around 50 and up. She just thinks she looks young enough to be a toddler’s mom.

[@tripjet999]

The woman looks like she could be in her 50s, so what's the big deal?

[@FallingGalaxy]

You're just used to people in their 50s looking like they're in their 30s thanks to plastic surgery. She does look young and even possibly in her 30s for that time period as people in their 50s back then looked more like people who are in their 70s look today.

[@Ferniverous]

@@FallingGalaxy not just because of plastic surgery. People in their 50s simply just looks younger now than they used to. It's mostly due to the way they dress, do their makeup and hair and their health. Otherwise, yeah, agreed. 50 really was an old timer back then

[@AdvantageYT]

what's so amazin about it??? the granny probly had a child when young.. and since the age wasn't really told such as if it was 60 or so, nothin really amazin about this nonsense!! the heck even a 35 year old granny can have a 20 year old daughter that got a 5 year old child, sheeesh

[@Tsadi9Mem9Khet9]

Well, you see, back then people, and particularly those who then made up mainstream America, had standards of decency, the decline in which correlates directly to other things that have changed since around that time.

[@markriding1267]

Close to Marylin Monroe's death...Peter sounds drunk 🤔

[@peternagy-im4be]

He was perpetually drunk

[@calvinsaxon5822]

Ummm, sorry, but...she's not THAT young-looking.

[@peternagy-im4be]

Yeah she is buddy

[@gynandroidhead]

For that time period she was. When I was born, my maternal grandmother was 50. She looked five years younger in the early 60's. In 2021, you'd think she was 60

[@rdbjrseattle]

Kevin’s grandfather is married to a much younger woman - ostensibly - or perhaps grandmother was very young when daughter was born and daughter was quite young when her baby was born. Remember, “old enough to bleed, old enough to breed”

[@mehboobkm3728]

Stupid show.. Ms Lippman looks at least 40 and obviously the panelists were just playing along, they really knew who they were!
