Is that kid 14 or 10?
Hard to tell from all 16 pixels. I've seen some pretty young looking 14 year olds though.
Additionally, I looked it up and in some states you can work at a family business at 12.
I'm assuming that store is a franchise, that's the only way I can think of it being technically a "family business"?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure all Culver's are franchises. I don't know why a franchise owned by one's parents wouldn't be considered a family business.
Can confirm at least some of them are franchises, for sure (if not all of them).
Nope, that's little Billy Culver in that picture
Loopholes, baby!
I work in the Media Center of a High School. Some 9th and even a few 10th graders definitely look like they still belong in middle school, some kids mature late. I’d totally believe that there’s a possibility this person is actually at least 14.
I worked as a waiter at a retirement home at 14, and definitely looked younger at the time, so I think there's a good chance this is the case.
NO ONE HERE ACTUALLY KNOWS.
