We have four kids, the oldest of whom has now
reached the ripe old age of 15 and he has more nerve
than a toothache. His latest escapade is to inform his
mother and I that he has just ordered a bicycle for
himself costing $189.
It won't be very useful to him for a while however,
because when I found out about it, I made very good
and sure that the 15 year old in question won't be able
to sit on the machine for quite a long time.
He has apparently signed some order forms however,
and I'm just wondering if we as parents are obliged to
pay for it since this transaction was made completely
without our knowledge or approval.
No! You can forget about it as the age of majority and ac-
countability in Ontario is now 18. Anyone under that age is
considered a minor or an infant. A contract cannot be en-
forced against a minor unless it is o contract for •necessities
such as food, shelter and clothing. 1f the infant receives goods
which ore not necessary he may repudiate the contract. The
goods can be returned and the money paid refunded.
If the bicycle has not arrived, the minor can refuse to
accept it when it does and get get his deposit (if any) bock.

I was told many years ago that I was adopted. I
never asked my adoptive parents while they were alive
who my real parents were and my adoptive parents
died several years ago, and now I have the strongest
urge to find out who my real parents are. I haven't a
clue as to how to go about this and I was also wonder-
ing if it's a very costly procedure or not?
Any information you can give me on this matter will
be greatly appreciated.
Normally adoption papers are sealed when the court order
is mode for adoption. They con only be opened for inspection
either by the order of a judge, or by the consent of the provin-
cial Director of Child Welfare. You should write to the direc-
tor first, and only if you cannot procure his consent should
you go through the more expensive procedure of an applica-
tion to court.

The letter that appeaed in lost week's column regar-
ding, "testifying in court", was of interest to me but I
have another question regarding our Canadian laws
that doesn't seem quite right to me and I was wonder-
ing what you thought about it, my question Sir, is this:
Why the defence of insanity is only used in major
crimes like murder? It seems to me that since it can get
the person off, it should also be able to be used for other
offences such as shoplifting, or for that matter, traffic
offences.
What is your answer?
First of all you are quite wrong in assuming that "if gets the
guilty party off" because, once a person is proved to hove
been insane of the time of the commission of on offence, "the
low requires that he or she con be put into o mental in-
stitution."
Once put in as o criminally insane person, that person can-
not be released until the government decides to let him or her
out. Obviously then, a successful plea of insanity could result
in a virtual 'Life Sentence" for any minor crime. Hope this ex-
planation answers your question.
"These questions and answers, based on Ontorio law, ore
published to inform and not to advise. No one should try to
apply or interpret the law, without the aid and advice of a
trained expert who knows the facts, since the facts of each
case may change the application of the law."
