Birthdays Celebrate Milestones
By Jane Kliperrs
Among the many milestones that occur in a person’s life, birthdays
are one of the biggest, especially for kids. When asked, many
of them will say that their 16th was one of their favorites because
it was a "coming of age" event.
With getting older and gaining more privileges, of course that
also means more responsibilities as well. The guys are all hoping
to get their driver’s license because impressing that special
16 year old girl who is now allowed to date is paramount.
Every Year A Huge Birthday Bash
Obviously, there are other years that are equally important to
others. Perhaps the first time a kid hits those "double digits"
and is no longer considered a "baby." After that, there
are the "tween" years; no longer a child but not quite
a teenager. Every year they envision a huge birthday bash with
cooler birthday gifts, and these days, a plethora of online greeting
cards.
What about the 18th birthday? Did you celebrate it in any specific
way or was it just another birthday? For many, this is considered
the first step towards adulthood, as there are now many things
that they can do that were not allowed before hitting this particular
birthday milestone. These birthdays probably do deserve to have
something special to commemorate the occasion, such as a big birthday
bash dance party with all of your friends.
The Final Step To Adulthood
Another major birthday milestone is the 21st birthday and it
is considered to be the final step towards adulthood. There are
major benefits that come with the 18th birthday but there is so
much more that becomes available once you turn 21. However, there
is a great deal more responsibility once this birthday has been
reached as well.
If 21 is considered a major milestone, then the 50th birthday
is probably the next biggest for some people. This is considered
the "over the hill" age, celebrated with black balloons,
streamers and an over the hill birthday cake. However, those who
have reached this age will argue that they are not over the hill.
Retirement isn’t far off, the kids have moved out of the house
(hopefully) and it is their time to relax. These birthdays usually
signify a time when moms and dads "get their lives back,"
and can pursue interests that have been on the back burner for
the last 20 or so years. Most adults really look forward to this
age with enthusiasm.
