...due to scheduling conflicts and technical difficulties, the final report and pictures of Motionary Comics will have to wait until Monday. I know, the suspense is killing me too.
Hey, this seems like a more direct way to question you. Why do I have to be 18 years of age to join RLSH? I just want to help out the community with you guys.
Anonymous - IM not certain what you mean by "join the RLSH" but if you are referring to a specific group, team, or website it will most likely be one of two reasons you are required to be 18.
1) There is a strong desire not to put a minor in danger or to encourage a minor to engage in dangerous activity. Even those who do mostly charity work will most likely require parental permissions and/or supervision before allowing you to join.
and
2) there is a legal liability that most groups or website admins need to avoid when dealing with minors. A person under the age of 18 is not legally liable for their own actions and can create situations that put the admin/group on questionable legal ground. Also the possibility that a minor interacting with adults may find themselves in some very personal situations - there has been one case where a person in the community was pursuing a relationship with a minor.
I know this doesnt help you, but I hope it helps you understand the reasons.
