    The syntax for this is pretty fun, you could do something like this:

    old_enough = ("10/23/2000".to_date + 18.years) < Date.today
    

    Turn your string into a date, add 18 years, and see if it is before or after today.

    If you want to put this in a model validator, this railscast could be useful:
