[TheThinkTank] Minors in the shop and general shop rules

Hey from Delaware! Just a couple questions for those with established shops....we will soon be moving out of my living room and are trying to learn from all your hard earned experience (the wiki has been great too).

1. How do you deal with minors in the shop? Do you have permission slips

they need to get signed or require a parent/guardian to come with them before a bike can be worked on? These are currently our main "customers" and there is no way i'd turn away a kid with broken brakes because he didn't have a slip signed. I just want to make sure we keep everything kosher here.

2. Could you share your general shop rules so we have a starting point?

Stuff like no profane language, be respectful, no tools outside....that sort of thing.

Thanks err'body!
