There is no agelimit for curses/spells/charms to be effective. Also,
Appartition. There's a reason 5 year olds don't do it.
Apparition is neither a spell nor a charm nor a curse. It's simply an
ability. However, acquiring abilities is not influenced by age either.
It is not allowed before 17. Also, some things will not be allowed to be
either thaught or learned before a given age. But still, whether one can
either learn or teach or do something, is not effected by rules.
CAN and MAY are very different words.
BTW, in real life I think people should let what they do and don't do be
ruled by their own wishes and needs, taking any consequences for others
into account. To me, general common sense and social responsibility
always overrule laws and burocrats.
Sadly, on the real Earth, it's basically one stupid evil book
dictating what a bunch of brain dead zombies think, do, and say. They
very idea of going against the literal translation kills them, and
sends them into a psychotic, murdering rage (Native Americans). Then
you have the Muslim version which is basically the same thing. except
it apparently demands Jihad against anybody not of your faith, and
seems to insist allah and yahweh are two different beings. Which any
intelligent person knows is the same dude. A dude who doesn't care
what you call him, how you worship him, as long as it's him and only
him. And still people fight and kill to prove their variation is the
demanded one. Apart from 10 Comamdnments, there's never been any
specific instructions on how to worship. Though Jews claim there's
rules on naming names.
One god, multiple worships. People let a book tell them it's multiple
gods in theory, one worship of their god only.
And this is an intelligent species that can think, reason, and read?
I say, do what you like, so long as no one gets hurt (including you.)
If nobody's ever hurt, it can't be wrong (Hurt isn't just physical.
hurt, as in destruction of other people's properties, for instance.)
