Knowing libraries?
They either didn't put an age range there so as to not discourage young adults or they mentioned it as being linked to some young readers program but didn't say "for the young readers."
That or he just missed that and, since it was probably mostly parents communicating, no one realized what happened until it was time for the photo and everyone was too awkward about it to say "Oh, well #2 here wins then."
Could also be something similar that happened to my wife recently. She 's had her library card since she was like 14 and the library still has her labeled as a child.
I had some weird stuff like this happen when I went into post-secondary classes. I had taken some programming classes as part of the so called gifted program in elementary school and my student account was configured wrong from being made before several large changes to how student accounts were managed. I got to keep my student number which had two fewer digits than everyone in my class at least, but the id verification, emails, phone calls, and taking a number and waiting in line were all a pain and I almost missed the registration deadline.
I could see that.
