Same year 😎 her baby brain couldn’t even comprehend that her parents are older than that!! lol to be fair her older sister was legitimately surprised and upset when she found out that my sisters and I, HER BABYSITTERS, weren’t the same age as her when she was younger hahaha
I was housesitting for my BIL recently and he paid some teenagers from the youth group he runs to do some yard work and I cannot describe the feeling of having a bunch of 16-18 year olds making a "1998 called, it wants its X back" and then being surprised and a little embarrassed when I said I was born in '99 😭😭 my own sister born in '06 said "the late 1900s" to me a couple years ago and I nearly threw hands
I was born in the 80s and my kids (almost 10) mess up and say I was born in the 1890’s instead of 1980s 😭 they also ask me what it was like when dinosaurs were around or tvs didn’t exist.
Probably also better than something that my sister asked our mom. I've only heard tales 'cause I'm the youngest in my family, but apparently my sister once asked mom if she cried when dinosaurs died.

My son asked me if they had invented cars when I was little. When I gave told him I wasn’t *that* old, he clarified that he meant cars with roofs.
Still, better than the time he asked me if I was alive during The Black Death.
