What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Connecticut

I was just wondering what the minimum age is to be hired as a software developer. Many laws on child labor are moderately outdated on this subject so I was just going to get some outside opinions on it.
Thanks!

There is no minimum age though because of contract requirements for software license agreements, etc... a company would be foolish to hire someone under 18 who isn't emancipated.

How old are you?

Child labor laws may seem outdated to you but if they're still in effect, they will be enforced.
