Congratulations! Your age might give you trouble--people will feel embarrassed to work for such young people, and people in general might not take you seriously. Good luck!

Zuckerberg seems to have done okay.

People who are concerned with the age of their boss are a little too concerned with status / authority / hierarchy to be at an early-stage startup.

I hear there's this other guy who tried to start a social network... Zuckersomething... was pretty young too. I think things worked out pretty alright for him.

They'll be fine :) If anything, they are best positioned to appreciated exactly how Facebook doesn't work for families.
