Some schools allow students who have reached the age of majority to sign their own permission slips; other schools continue to require that the parent of the student must still sign the form. Many adult students object to a continued requirement for parental signature, since there is no legal necessity for adults to obtain authorization from their parents to travel or participate in any activity.

—Joseph Featherstone (20th century)
