How can i add two date forms with time.Parse?

Time:10-22

I'm trying to add two different date forms for more flexibility during testing, but I got this error below:

The error I received when I tried to parse dates --> 2021/10/21 12:15:35 parsing time "1982/01/08" as "2006-01-02": cannot parse "/01/08" as "-"

BD.go

// an array of users

    Users []User `json:"users"`

// a type and a list of social links

    Secondname string `json:"lname"`
    Date       string `json:"date"`
}

    // Open our jsonFile
    jsonFile, err := os.Open("users.json")
    // if we os.Open returns an error then handle it
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println(err)
    }

    fmt.Println("Successfully Opened users.json")
    // defer the closing of our jsonFile so that we can parse it later on
    defer jsonFile.Close()

    // read our opened xmlFile as a byte array.

    // we initialize our Users array
    var users Users
