Why do conservatives always reference my age when talking politics to me?

I'm not a liberal, but I'm not too far from one; my closest match, if I had to group myself somewhere, would be libertarian.

I've just noticed that whenever I talk with conservatives about anything, they always tell me that I'm just a kid, and that I'll grow up and adopt their way of thinking.

What makes you so sure? What if I'm just more of a leftist than you? I'm very politically informed, especially for my age, and I'm certainly cerebral enough to form my own logical opinions. I'm not tinfoil hat, freedom-hating hippie.

Is "growing up" to be a conservative common? What are the signs?
