title: Why Datetime is null on Post MVC?
body: <p>I have a DateTime field in my model that is shown in a form in my view like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;div class="editor-field"&gt;
      @Html.EditorFor(model =&gt; model.Age)
      @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model =&gt; model.Age)
  &lt;/div&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When a new model is created and inserted into my database, I assign it a value of <code>09/11/1990 15:36:22</code>. If I try to edit this model using my view and do not change the value of <code>Age</code> for my model, the model is validated and any changes to other fields are accepted and saved. However, if I change the <code>Age</code> field to <code>07/27/2010 15:36:22</code> I am getting a validation error" <code>The value '07/27/2010 15:36:22' is not valid for Age.</code> But, the date <code>09/12/2010 15:36:22</code> is validated successfully. Any reason why this is happening? In the debugger, the value returned for invalid dates is <code>01/01/0001</code>.</p>
  
  <p>Edit: I think this has to do with the culture for jquery-validate and my system, since the client side validation fails any date that is in DD/MM/YYYY format, while the server side validation is failing any date that is in MM/DD/YYYY format.</p>
