Oh, and I missed something that I wanted to say before I was side tracked. Even though it's more socially acceptable for older men to date younger women, in this case if it were a man that decided that a young woman (keep trying not to call them boys and girls) that he'd known since birth, that had been a good friend of his son's I would find that even more offensive for some reason. I'd be worried how long he'd been lusting after young girls etc.
As it is, the thought that this woman looked at my own children (my oldest is 23) in that way never crossed my mind. But I'd be frantic if someone in our social circle started dating my daughter or one of her friends.
