No your thinking about the past.
It used to 100% normal for a young girl around 12 to marry a man in his late 20's or 30's and start a family. I think its only very recent in human history that the age gap has become much smaller.
(last several hundred years)
This had to do with a much shorter life Expectancy, and many other factors.
