I’m 61 and still not “old enough” for most so-called “senior” things I care about or not seen as deserving of help. There’s arbitrary age restrictions for stuff like that.
I agree that it’s for the very young or milestone birthdays but even my milestone birthdays passed with little fanfare or attention. There’s cultural pressure to acknowledge certain ages which I hate. I don’t feel my chronological age. And when young or a kid you can’t wait to grow up. Then you wish you were younger.
