Fun fact about proving your citizenship!
My kid was naturalized along with my wife (her mother) a couple years ago. My kid is still a minor, and cannot apply for a certificate of naturalization until she turns 18, and then it's anyone's guess how long the DOGE-neutered State Dept will take to issue her piece of paper.
In other words, you can be naturalized as an infant and have no way to prove it until well after your 18th birthday.
