    What is a “vacation card”? Apparently hallmark owns the seo terms I tried.

    In the US, each state must provide a non-drivers id, maybe called a state id or colloquially a “sheriffs ID”. However since everyone drives, starting as early as 15 in some states, and you don’t need ID until you’re 18 (or leave the country), it just isn’t very common.

    We just got somewhat surprised by this, as my son was unexpectedly not motivated to drive. We hadn’t travelled out of country so hadn’t gotten around to getting him a passport (kid passports expire faster, you have to renew them more frequently). Then, the day he turned 18, we instantly went from not having to worry about it to he’s suddenly limited. I had actually planned a trip and realized too late (state ID takes 30+days to issue) that he had turned 18 so could no longer fly
