Yeah, for most parents, measuring age in months ends right around the one year mark. For obvious reasons.
That and there’s no way the kid in this cartoon is 32 months. That’s 2 years, 8 months. Walking and talking and likely ~15kg. While not impossible, that would be pretty hard to yeet up to 16.4 mph.

I know plenty of parents who refer to their kid in months through year two, as you’re hitting milestones every month or two (vaccines, physical/psychological development, age limit for certain pharmaceuticals, etc) and “2 years” is such a big milestone for them all.
Also, kids who are premature make things extra complicated. I still refer to my son as “13-months adjusted” because if I said “16-months” people would wonder why he was so small.
While I agree with you, I also have to say that a significant percentage of people have no idea of the size difference between 13 and 16 months, and that saying 13 months adjusted is a little silly, but fun! So you do you.

Oh, you like math?
