My kid (14 years old) is pretty innovative and has a great idea that he wants to write a patent for -- himself.
I know enough about patents to know that he probably can't do a good enough job himself to file a patent that can offer much protection, however, I want him to do it just for the learning experience of it. It doesn't cost much to file.
My question though is: is there a lower age limit for filing? Can someone under the age of majority file a patent? (Jurisdiction is the USA.)
Thanks.
