The title says it all!

She read a book in which there was a picture of an old 'babishka' who was wrinkled. (not a real picture)

Now she wants to know whether in real life do people turn into 'extremely' wrinkled individuals?!

She literally turns pale when asking me those questions Shocked

She once told me she doesn't want to become a mother because that would make me into a grandmother and who knows how wrinkled I would become.

She associates a grandma with wrinkles despite the fact that she has a few grandmother's and none of them look 'scary' - as in very wrinkled.

How do I calm her and take that fear away?! And is this normal??
