Good for you and your parents, but it wasn't common until 1986 when Reagan's new tax code suddenly required social security numbers for dependents. It was 1987 when they started rolling it out as part of the birth at the hospital.

Your lol no tone implies I don't remember my own teen years.

You said we didn't get ss numbers until we got jobs and we said no.
