AITA for not wanting my daughter's (16) older boyfriend (19).

My daughter is 16, she has her "first" boyfriend. She is not experienced in boys, she is still a sweet and innocent girl. This boyfriend of hers is 19, has a car, is finished school and has work. Obviously I am not pleased about this relationship for many reasons. She is too young and I think he is too old, he should be looking for a girlfriend his own age (18-20). I have told her this and she is very upset with me, she says that I am ruining her first relationship and that I am over controlling. She has said that he looks after her and loves her and that she would do anything for him, and I believe this is true. My wife thinks I should just let my daughter live her life. AITA for not wanting my daughter to date a guy that is older than her?<br><br>EDIT: She got asked out by a guy at school, she told her bf and he asked her to break it down for him so he listened to how they are still in school, don't have cars, have part time jobs, don't like sport enough to go to the gym a few times a week. He wanted to know details of what made them want to ask her out - he made her replay the whole thing. Now he is picking her up from school, dropping her off after school. I just want her to have a normal high school experience with her peers.
