Are there any laws related specifically to minors and entertainment?
What will be an ideal response?
The entertainment industry deals with contracts to persons under the age of eighteen regularly. Under general contract law principles, these minors may void or disaffirm contracts. States such as New York, California, Florida and others have enacted laws that govern entertainment contracts with minors since minors (or sometimes described as infants) may disaffirm contracts. Minors often serve as models in commercials and advertising media. Hundreds of famous child actors have benefited from the entertainment industry's reliance on minors for the generation of revenue and profits. Unions such SAG, AFTRA and the Actors Equity Association (AEA) have adopted special work rules that may apply to minors in connection with their services in the industry. Note: In 2003, Tennessee (also known as the "third coast") established the Tennessee Protection of Minor Performers Act.
