Young

It’s my friend’s son ’s birthday.

I sarcastically ask the little guy:

”How young are you turning today?”

Or does it have to be - how old

”Or does it have to be - how old Why sarcastically? It has to be 'old', but in the given situation you are making a joke through word play, so 'young' is fine there. CJ
