When youre a kid, every birthday is a big deal.
Remember those days when you actuallywantedto brag about being a year older?
Plus, birthdays meant presents, cake and maybe even a party.
And your birthdays somehow became an even bigger deal over time, at least for a while.
You turned 17 and no longer needed a parental unit to buy R-rated movie tickets.
Your 18th birthday was the day you became a totally mature grown-up fully capable of making adult decisions.
Errr… at least in the eyes of the law.
