);

TIPS

use DateTime::Format::Strptime;
use Scalar::Util qw/blessed/;

has birthdate => (
  isa     => DateAndTime,
  is      => 'ro',
  default => sub { DateTime->today },
  coerce  => sub {
      (blessed($_[0]) and (blessed($_[0]) eq 'DateTime'))
    ? $_[0]
    : DateTime::Format::Strptime->new(pattern => '%F %T')->parse_datetime($_[0])
