Actually, I respectfully decline to act as ad hoc
surrogate police for
any other party, especially anyone trying to lord it over children. I
figure each party can negotiate with each other party without my
generalizing advice ... except to say:
(a) I don't think judges hold anyone under age to a binding contract,
and
(b) I don't think a judge inflicts a non-negotiated contract on anyone,
and
(c) I don't think any judge will uphold any contract without
"consideration" between the parties, that is, money change hands.
Ask a lawyer who practices in your jurisdiction.
When was the last time your saw a school child get a trial before
being given a detention?
I once asked a teacher why the United Nations Universal Declaration of
Human Rights doesn't seem to apply to school children. His response:
"Children don't count as human." (I should clarify, he *was* joking.)
