How can I change my birth date?

This is not your real life birthdate (which is, by the way, not possible to change and also not visible in your profile).

12-29-2016 is the date where your account was created, to determine how old your account is. So its basically the birthday of your avatar

Syo is correct.  Besides her excellent answer, you will want to remember your "rez date" of 12/29/2016, because a year from that date will be your first "rezday".  Many people have Rezday parties in Second Life...it's the equivalent of a birthday party.

Just to add to both excellent answers you received....

Thankfully your RL birthday is secret.  Since that date is just your avatar's rez date, you can still look like your RL self age wise or enjoy looking and being any other age you want to be! 

You don't have to tell anyone in SL what your real birthday even if asked.  By remaining mum you'll get the opportunity to know people of all ages, which is part of the fun.   I wouldn't recommend giving any personal information out to anyone until you've known them a long time and they have earned your trust.

if you want to change your birthday go to your settings or press your name on top or your picture

Ignore this guy. That's not true at all.
