| I am a twenty-something with braces. It is definitely not fun to when people still mistake me for a highschooler even though I have a real job. Don't even get me started with what some people say to me at bars. I appreciate the advice and thank you for the article- because sometimes it's hard to be taken seriosly when age isn't on your side. | |

| thanks for this article- I wholeheartedly agree that it's difficult for us who look younger to be taken seriously at the office. I'm 24 years old and work at a law firm, yet my height (5'2) and possibly my ethnicity (asians tend to look younger) make people think I'm still 14. Give me a break! This article has really awesome tips that I will be using. I am now in the process of eliminating my usage of 'like' in my everyday speak :-) | |

| I agree with other's comments...Lily, I too had braces for about 1.5 years and just got them off about 10 months ago (I will be 29 next week)...so I know what it is like to look young anyway and have braces on top of that...don't stress you will get through it and have a beautiful smile (which, trust me is worth it in the end!)!! I still get carded and still am the youngest at the office...All the tips in the article are great. And I agree...when did it become appropriate to ask how old someone at work is... | |
