My best friend from high school, debate partner, introducer to the MITSFS and eventual MITSFS Skinner, roommate at MIT, for whom I was best man, has just written with the happy news that he is, as of Saturday, a grandfather!
Yes, indeed, that must be it. Mike's son is a mere thirtyoneteen. Far too young to be a daddy!
On the other hand, another friend from my high school days has a daughter who has, in the intervening years, somehow become older than either of us now. Not sure how that happened...
I've been having to deal with one of my high school classmates posting pictures of her grandchild online. In this case, she became a mother within a year of graduating, and I think her child became a parent at a similar age.
Then there is my brother who has been a grandfather for six or seven years now (I have a grandnephew who is the same age or older than my youngest nephew, my sister's son), which means he became a grandfather at my age or younger. In that case it was an extra early birth (my niece was barely 18 if that).

(it's the only plausible explanation for someone your age being a grandparent...)
