There is a curfew for kids not in the company of an adult Sun-Thurs nights during the school year. I believe it is 10pm. The local Walmart will not even allow adults over the age of 18 that look young without a drivers license proving their age. I also know that kids under age 18 are suppose to by law leave work with enough time to get home.

I do recall once being let in on prom night...but tapping my head on that, it was a Saturday night. I had a boyfriend kicked out once and they refused to let him in, even after he brought forth proof he'd left in the car of his age. I was waiting for him because I didn't have my license with me at the time.

Wasn't there a ruling.. last yearish.. that deemed blanket curfews for people whatever age to be unconstitutional and unenforceable?
