Freedom Of Speach

[Laws]

Hello! I was wondering if freedom of speech has a certain age of which you have that right. We had a little disagreement over what age you must be to have it and I was just hoping that you might have the answer. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,
Laws

Why not give us an example of the issue your referring to.

Freedom of Speech is contextual in nature. A baby would not be charged for crying. Here is a Wiki on it:

Only adults have rights, any rights. That means a person at least 18 years of age.
The rights a minor might have is held by his or her parent(s).
Courts don't recognize minors.
If a minor were injured in an accident, a parent or guardian would seek a remedy for compensating the minor before a court. The court sees minors as legal incompetents, or non-persons.

If the minor tried to bring her own lawsuit, the court would reject it.
That doesn't mean minors can be abused or neglected.
The law protects them, as it does animals.
But, an animal (or a pet) couldn't bring it's own lawsuit, either.

You almost certainly speak of a situation in which the First Amendment does not even apply.
