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.

I can remember quite vividly resenting being carded for alcohol when I was young. Now I ask to be carded as a joke.
Thanks for this!
