Definition of "Minor Child"

A minor child is a child under the legal age of consent. This typically means that the child is under the age of 18, though some states do not consider a person an adult until the age of 21. In certain situations, such as if the child is married or is an emancipated minor, a child under the age of 18 will not be considered a minor child.
