Does it happen in the US as it does here? As a youngster, you are always wanting to be older (i.e. I am 13 and 3/4 years old)
then for the next umpteen decades, you want to be younger.
Finally, you become proud of your age, and want to be older again (i.e. I'll be 89 next birthday)
I haven't quite got to the last stage yet, but I am past caring about the middle stage.
