Minors are seen as "mentally incompetent", or, in other words, not capable of making rational decisions on their own. Legally, minors CAN enter into a contract; however, the minor is, generally, exempt from any punishments or sanctions of that contract. The adult, on the other hand, is fully responsible for it. Or, in short, the minor can violate the contract, and receive little-to-no punishment, while you are still held responsible if you did the same. So, it is not illegal to service minors. It's just not in your best interest.
No. A legal guardian is appointed by the court to oversee the welfare of a minor until said minor reaches the legal age of majority or the court rescinds the guardian order or the guardian askss to be reieased from the obligation.

Furthermore, the guardian would need permission from the issuing court to allow the minor to leave the residence for any extended period of time especially if the minor is leaving the state of residency.
