Should I be worried?

I think my boyfriend's parents generally like me but they always refer to me as "Carson's friend" when introducing me to other parents/family. My boyfriend just turned 17 and I'm 16. Should I be offended his mom doesn't refer to me as his girlfriend or is that normal? It doesn't really offend me when it happens but looking back, it kinda scares me :/

Yall not adults yet so she might not be comfortable saying girlfriend.

Worried, no, but I'd be insulted or annoyed. My ex's parents did that to me, because they refused to acknowledge that he was old enough or mature enough to be dating. And we were in our 20s. ? They were control freaks. Don't know if that's the same case here but I wouldn't really "worry" about it. If it keeps happening & bothers you, maybe ask your boyfriend what he thinks, and maybe he can talk to them about it?
