Pediatrics (also spelled paediatrics or pÃ¦diatrics) is the branch of medicine that deals with the medical care of infants, children, and adolescents, and the age limit usually ranges from birth up to 18-21 years of age (in some places until completion of secondary education).
Anyone who has reached the age of majority is liable for most of his or her actions, whereas a minor is the legal responsibility of parents or legal guardians. The age of majority in Pennsylvania is 18. According to the statute, any individual 18 and older: 1  Has the right to enter into binding and legally enforceable contracts (thus losing the defense of minority). 2  May sue and be sued in civil court.
