Age and some adults, LOL!
When I got my first paper route, my mother insisted that I save half of the pay that she didn't take.
We're in the bank and filling out the forms. The bank gentleman looks over the forms and says to my mother, "You didn't put down your year of birth." My mother says, "I don't want him to know how old I am." I said to the bank gentleman, "Just put in 1913."
On the way home my mother demanded how I knew. I said, "You fill out forms and leave them laying around. Anyone can read the forms from 6 feet away."

My Daughter is twenty eight. Her old school friends are also in their late twenties. All insist on still calling me Mr... Even though I have suggested first names would be fine, they will not deviate.
Sometimes I get the Scary Mr... This may have something to do with their mindset.

My wife and I were pretty late having kids, she had the kids convinced she was the same age as their friends Mums even though they knew how old I was.
This went on for years until they were checking in at customs on the way to Canada and they saw her dob on her passport.
My son did some quick mental arithmetic and blurted out her age, he and his sister were a bit put out they had been fooled for so long.
