Best Answer

In most cases, yes.

First, in most cases, what the minor is calling "their phone" is actually "the parent's phone that they let the minor use". Companies are reluctant to contract minors, so the parent is usually the owner of, both, the phone and the service.

Even when this isn't the case, the minor is still below the age of majority (18). Until the minor has reached the age of majority, the parent is not only able, but obligated, to make decisions for them.

Can a police officer search a 14 year old child without permission or consent from a parent for trespassing?

Yes, it can be for their own safety as well as other reasons. A person in custody, minor or adult, must be searched before they are booked. Seeing an officer does not need permission from a parent to arrest their child, a search without the parent's permission would coincide.


Is it illegal to post pictures of children online without their parent's consent?

If you mean a nude/erotic picture, it depends on where you live and the state laws in that area. If it is illegal to take a nude picture of a minor (under 18) in that place, then even the parents cannot consent to it. If the girl/boy is 18 and above, she/he can consent to this themself and does not need the parent/s permission for it.


Can teachers search minors without parent or law enforcement?

In the UK A Police officer can not strip search any one under 18 (I think they can strip search 16-17 yr old's in special circumstances i.e if they sneak cigarettes into the cell and smoke them) in any place or at any time even if your parents/guardians are around.Just because your under 18 doesn't mean they can treat you like a dog not even your parents are around.It's your body your life your time


Can your parents search your room legally without your consent if you are 16?

Yes. It is their home and you are their child. They are responsible for your acts, legal and illegal, and have the right to any place within their home. You might make the argument that it violates your right to privacy. However, as a minor, you have not right to privacy that is not derived from your parent's right to privacy. Their right trumps yours.
