Why go out on dates when you can let your mom do the work for you?
New Yorker Geri Brin has launched a website where she and other parents can find ideal matches for their single "kids," the New York Post reports. Her goal? To marry off her 31-year-old son, Colby.
"I figured I might as well cast a wide net to increase his odds of finding the right woman since he's not hitting the jackpot on his own," she told the Post.
Geri believes there's a market for a website that caters to moms looking to find a "nice girl" for their sons, and vice versa.
She's invested hundreds of thousands of dollars in "Date My Single Kid" -- which can be found on the website Faboverfifty.com. So far, she's attracted 20 parents and their adult kids.
Call us old-fashioned, but we like to keep our parents out of our love life, thank you very much.

Relationships in the U.S. and Westernized nations are so unstable! They keep breaking-up, divorcing, and separating. If the marriage is arranged and there is no way out, you have no choice, but to resolve you issues with your spouse and stay together no matter what.
what the hell,,, you better step your game up quick, unless you want your mom teaching you how to do right in bed too!
I'm the best judge of who is right for me, NOT my mom. Of course, I will bring him back to meet her when it's the right time, but I would NOT let her choose a guy for me.
And besides, I don't have a date because I'm asexual! As, in, I don't want a date. Ever.
