We allow Junior Members Aged 16 through 18 with parental signatures, (we
have never had anyone apply, except children of team members). Our junior
members can only help at the Command Post or Ground Support. They can
train with us, but not participate in the "searching".

Our unit was founded in 2000, and at
that time we did not accept junior members age 16-18. Would those teams
that have junior members, please email me the by-laws governing junior
members and pros/cons of having junior members. Thanks. Janice Hatch/

The question of junior MSAR responders has come up
several times here on MSAR-Riders; see our archives, which can be
browsed and searched via
http://www.ibiblio.org/msar/msar-riders.html
In particular, see the
long thread on "Minors as members" in 2006
Q3: https://lists.ibiblio.org/sympa/arc/msar-riders/2006q3/thread.html
That
said, the question has not come up recently so perhaps it is time for us to
discuss it again, for the benefit of all who are interested.

The primary problem with under 18 year olds is that
they cannot be used in any situation that would violate the child labor or
welfare rules of your home state.
Besides controlling what they can
do (in Pennsylvania a minor cannot dispense fuel or use power cutting tools
for instance), it often controls when they can do it or for how long.
No school nights, no response after 11 PM, no driving over 9000 pound GVW
vehicles after dark, etc. Additionally, in Pennsylvania, a minor can
revoke any agreement, including a release, signed by them or their guardian
on their behalf, when they turn 18.
We will permit
minors to train with us but they can't respond in the field, so we have had
no applications but we have had ride-a-longs who were children of members
or in fundraising events (shows) with parents present. Our insurance policy
covers all members, regardless of age.
