There are some gray areas though. I remember a contract I had to sign a few months back before I turned 18 - a Lawyer told me that my parents could not co-sign it because the contract was obligating me to work, and for my parents to sign it would be somewhat equivalent to slavery. In essence, noone can sign an agreement that requires *you* to do something. I never figured out if the contract would have held water if I had signed it b/c I waited until I turned 18. I do remember discussing something similar not long ago and I was told that often times a minor can sign an agreement and, if they fulfill their terms, they can require the other party to fulfill theirs - but the minor cannot be forced to fulfill theirs.
