Tried to get a passport recently but got denied

What reasons do they have for denying people? I've never really looked into it.

I was told that they changed the rules about birth certificates sometime between now and when I was born so that in order to get a passport it needs to have both parents on the certificate. The certificate I was given at birth only has one parent so I gotta shell out another $50+ to order a new one before they'll allow me to have a passport.

Another annoying part is that the day I went in to get the passport was the last day before they raised the processing fees for passports so now it's even more expensive.
