1943 middle of world war 2 but you are okay as you are too young to be drafted.
1953 world war 2 is over and America is top dog and it is pretty awesome to be an American.
1963 things are changing politically and Kennedy has been assassinated and civil unrest is really starting to get out of control.
1973 Nixon has been forced to resign due to watergate and we are beginning to get into a gas crisis and opec and other foreign nations are screwing around with the United States and yes I was 12 at this time and saying eff Iran.
1983 after Reagan replaced Jimmy carter as president America started looking up again, winning an Olympic gold in hockey after beating the Russian empire and then Finland for the gold and then having Reagan tell Gorbachev tear down the wall was the biggest point in my life as an American.
1993 Bill Clinton is in the white house receiving head from Monica Lewinsky but it could be worse for American’s as most people let things be and no major wars are going on.
2003 2 years after the twin towers had planes from terrorists fly into them during president bush’s term and spending forever in the Middle East and guess what Americans are still there.
2013 Obama begins his second term and things aren’t horrible but things could be better.
2023 Gee it’s great to have Biden as president as we watch inflation and green influence take over thank goodness I only have a short time left.
Okay gang which decade do you want to start at 13 years old, my two are 1953 and 1983 this isn’t meant to be political it is just meant to ask the question of when was the best time to be 13 throughput all of these decades.

I was 12 for the 1993 example.
