sponsorship/age question

My sister is 29 and I just found out her sponsor is only 16 and has a year of sobriety. The sponsor has been in jail and had 2 children taken away from her because of her drug use.

My sister has 2.5 months of consecutive clean time since treatment. My sister is going to 3 meetings a week and is doing her work with her sponsor.

I'm thankful my sister is staying clean, but I'm hung up on her sponsor's age.
My sister doesn't think it's a problem and doesn't really see a conflict.

For some reason it's a concern for me. Guess I need to let go of my sister's way of recovery, too.

Does age matter when it comes to addiction and recovery?
