Thank you! So a bar/bat mitzvah is a title or a state of being, and not a party/ritual?

- names_are_hard 5y agoYes, exactly. It happens to you whether you are aware of it or not, although it is typically celebrated. Think of it like becoming 18 in the US - one day you wake up and you're old enough to buy cigarettes and are generally responsible for your actions. That's what bar/bat mitzvah are.
