How This Works

This calculates the true calendar gap between two birth dates โ€” years, months and days โ€” the same way you'd count it by hand, correctly handling different month lengths and leap years.

Formula

Age Difference = Later Birth Date − Earlier Birth Date

Example

A parent born in 1985 and a child born in 2015 have a 30-year age gap.
