Can a minor be sued in Ohio if there is no reckless behavior associated with the damages?
Yes. In general, a minor can be sued if he or she behaved negligently, meaning that he had a duty of care, and his conduct fell below the standard of care, causing damages to someone.
Recklessness is considered a more severe breach of the duty of care than negligence. Think of it this way - if negligence is a failure to exercise due care, recklessness is the failure to exercise any care.
Minors are generally held to the standard of a reasonable child of similar age, education, and intelligence. If it's found that such a hypothetical reasonable child would have been more careful, the minor will be liable for whatever damage he or she caused.
