Once you've entered your birthdate into your PSN account, there's no option to edit your age. To get around this limitation, you can link your PSN account to your Sony account, which forces you to enter a new birthdate. The new birthdate will then be reflected on your PSN account. This wikiHow teaches you how to link you PSN account to your Sony account so you can update your birthdate and age.
