Which age do you mean?

Your accounts age shown in your profile can't be changed, because it refers to the creation date of your account. Your birthdate you provided at the account information can't be changed either, or at least not so easily. Why do you want to change it? Problems with entering a certain place?

It is quite possibly because you have just joined SL. It is nothing personal. Many club owners automatically block entry to any avatars born within the past 30 days as a way to prevent griefers from causing trouble. Most troublemakers either get bored quickly or are banned from SL within a month, so blocking newcomers is a logical strategy. If you are, in fact, over 18 year old in RL and have set your viewing preference to Adult, you should be able to enter even those places by mid-October. Meanwhile, explore SL.

Ah. That age cannot be changed without a LOT of trouble. Linden Lab accepts the age that you declared when you joined Second Life. If you accidentally entered the wrong birthdate, you can submit a support ticket under the heading Account Issue >>> Account Creation Issue to ask them to correct it. Be prepared for serious skepticism, though. Historically, they have found it hard to believe that anyone can't remember their own birthday. They will probably ask for photocopies of documents to verify your birthdate.

Syo is right.

On the remote chance that you can't remember your own birthday and entered the wrong date when you signed up, you can open a Support Ticket with Linden Lab and request a change.  They will require some proof of your correct age, such as a clear copy of your birth certificate or drivers license.

If you DID remember your own birthday correctly, but are simply under 18, then take Rolig's advice and be patient.  You'll be MUCH better off.  People who lie about their age in SL are almost always caught...and then you will lose your account entirely, and LL will block access to SL for everyone on your computer, permanently.

Even if you are not caught, it's very dangerous for a minor to lie about her age here.  There are predators in Second Life just as there are in RL.  Your parents could find out and ground you for life.  You could even get in trouble with the law, or get someone else in trouble.

It's not worth it.
