Kylie Jenner, Tyga News 2015: Couple’s Relationship Labeled As ‘Not Normal’ Because Of Their Age Gap [PHOTO, VIDEO]
For some, age might be nothing more than a number but it doesn't look like everyone shares that same view in life. 25-year-old Tyga and 17-year-old Kylie Jenner are being criticized for their relationship as some are saying that the huge age gap between them is "not normal."

According to Fox News on Tuesday, clinical psychologist Dr. Chloe Carmichael, who specializes in relationship issues, says that Kendall and Tyga have a very little chance of having a successful relationship as they aren't on the same level emotionally.
"Tyga is actually 50 percent older than Kylie, which makes a big difference in terms of development at the age of 17. Kylie is so young that her cerebral cortex is still forming- the cerebral cortex is what helps us to strategize, consider future consequences, and put emotions into context," Carmichael said. "It's unhealthy because Kylie is in a 'one down position' by dating a man whose brain and body are fully formed while she is literally still developing."
Carmichael says that even though Kylie has been exposed to a very mature world, thanks to her older sisters in the Kardashian family, she's still very much a teenager trying to grow up too fast to keep up with everyone around her.
"She has grown up in a very adult world: nightclubs, tabloids, and observing seemingly endless relationship drama," she said. "It would probably be difficult for her to find someone her own age that could feel like a strong, manly romantic lead given her very adult-like teen experience so far."
While there has been a lot of speculation about their relationship, neither Tyga nor Kendall have officially confirmed that they are indeed dating. However, one of Tyga's recent Instagram posts seems to say otherwise.
