Which age is eligible for alternative restraint?

Which age is eligible for alternative restraint?

• A. Less than 12 years old
• B. Less than 16 years old
• C. 16 years old and older
• D. Any age with conditions

Answer: (B)

The question is about the age threshold for using alternative restraints. In this context, alternative restraints are designated for juveniles, so eligibility is defined by being under a certain age. The policy sets that threshold at under 16 years old, meaning anyone younger than 16 qualifies for alternative restraints, while those 16 and older are treated as adults and would not use this option. The choice that says less than 16 years old directly matches this boundary and includes all ages that qualify. The other options either miss part of the eligible group (for example, specifying under 12) or include those who aren’t eligible (16 and older), or are too vague.
