GAUTENG. – A mother's attempt to introduce her 34-year-old son to a possible girlfriend has attracted attention on social media after she simply "advertised" him on Facebook. Amanda Brand did later tell her 34-year-old son that she had done it.

Brand posted on the Montana and north of the mountain Pretoria community's Facebook page that she had a "beautiful son" who probably would not be very happy when he sees the post. According to her, he is 34 years old and from Pretoria, where he works in business intelligence. She describes him as a Christian who is not a party animal, works hard and does not go out much. A nice social gathering is however according to her not a problem for him at all, while he also has a "wicked sense of humour".

Brand invited other mothers to contact her privately if they had a daughter who might get along with her son. "DM me and then we'll work it out behind the children's backs," she joked. She later added that she did tell her son about the post and that he apparently took it in good spirit and had a good laugh about it.
