The areas of concern for which parental or guardian consent is required for minors are questions related to: First. parental political affiliation or beliefs. second. mental or psychological problems. third. sexual behavior or attitudes. fourth. illegal. antisocial. or selfincriminating behavior. fifth. appraisals of other individuals with whom the minor has a familial relationship. sixth. relationships that are legally recognized as privileged. including those with lawyers. physicians. and members of the clergy. and seventh. religious affiliations and beliefs. The bill also provides five types of commonsense exceptions from this requirement. They are: The seeking of information for the purpose of a criminal investigation or adjudication. any inquiry made pursuant to a good faith concern for the health. safety. or welfare of an individual minor. administration of the immigration. internal revenue or customs laws of the United States. the seeking of any information required by law to determine eligibility for participation in a program or for receiving financial assistance. and seeking information to conduct tests intended to measure academic performance. The legislation requires that Federal agencies provide implementation procedures and ensure full compliance with the legislation. The procedures shall provide for advance availability of each survey or questionnaire for which a response from a minor is sought.
