Suffolk County Sheriff Practice Exam

A person who has not yet attained the age of 16 years.

Adult Child Minor Infant

Correct Answer:

Child

Explanation:

Age labels reflect different stages and protections. A person who has not yet attained 16 years is considered a child. Infants refer to very young babies, and adults are 18 or older. While minor is a general term for someone under the age of majority, the wording here points to the common label for someone under 16, which is child. So this term best matches the age described.
