Why do people assume you are younger?

My screen name is the jazzteen.
The reason I am the jazzteen is because my papa played jazz, and he was good. He played with miles davis and charlie parker and they both said he was the best sax player they had ever heard. His nickname was he Jazzman. and I wanted to be just like him. At the time I was 14, so he used to call me the jazzteen since I learned how to play the sax because he did. After he died when i was 14, people still said that I played like he did. So I kept the name the Jazzteen, even though it has been a while since I was 14.
But even when people see me in person, they still have a kid image of me. Why is that?
Just a random and very thought provoking question.
