    Well it is important as it marks the age when it is legal to drink. Your son is very handsome, I hope he has a great birthday.

    PLease don't think I am trying to argue with you, but, other than drink, what other 'legal' things are permitted at 21 that aren't already given to us at 18? I am presuming you are in the US, and not another country...

    Gambling is all I can think of. Age divides are actually based on state, not in the entire U.S. Some states have higher or lower ages for smoking, drinking, and even getting married. I think 14 is the lowest marriage age but I forget which state.

    21 is the age when you can legally get a pistol permit. It is also the age when you can rent x-rated movies or go to that sort of show, when you are legally an adult for all sorts of things, when you can drink - or even not drink but be able to get into clubs where alcohol is served, even if you're just going to dance ...

    Some states allow gambling once you turn 18.

    Oh i don't think that at all. but I have heard it is the legal age for quite a few things. I can't think of any right now but yeah you are right mostly it is given at 18. and yes I am in the us. But mostly it is just a special time.
