I'm looking for opinions on whether I am understanding this correctly.
I have found several websites that claim a person must be 18 in order to USE the GMRS system, but I don't think that is the case. According to my research, I believe that a person must be 18 in order to become a LICENSEE and that a person of any age can use the station under the adult's license.
Am I correct?
Here is my backup. (From the FCC's website)

Although this document is a proposal for changes to the GMRS system, there is a statement on page 12, section III-B-2, paragraph 29 that states "Under the current GMRS rules, only individuals who are 18 or older are eligible to obtain a GMRS license. An individual’s family members of all ages may operate GMRS stations and units within a licensed system."
