A mother of a 12 year old

A mother of a 12 year old at 25?? She had Billy at 13?? Why does film and TV always cast mothers as young and fathers as older? If the age group for the father is 30-45 - it should be the same for the mother! Sorry, I am just getting sick of this false representation of mothers in our media.
