In earlier years, it’s more likely that a woman got married and started having kids right out of high school, so Mom is anywhere from early 30s to 40. I don’t think Archie has any siblings. Betty, on the other hand, has an older sister and brother, so her mother is likely older than Archie’s.

Though yes, aging was different back in the 1940s vs today. Wonder if how much younger Mom looked in the “Little Archie” stories (once that series came along) might’ve influenced reducing her present-day age.

(Recall as well Ma and Pa Kent being de-aged in the late 60s; since then they’ve either been late-middle-aged looking with brown hair or elderly but not as dowdy looking as their elderly 50s/60s selves…)
