Under what condition may a minor participate in public dancing in licensed premises?

A minor may participate in public dancing in licensed premises under the condition that the establishment serves regular meals and that the minor is accompanied by an adult. This condition is in place to ensure that minors are in a controlled environment where there are adult guardians present, promoting safety and addressing concerns related to alcohol consumption. Licensed premises that serve meals typically create an atmosphere that is more family-friendly, which is conducive to allowing minors to engage in such activities.

The other options do not meet the necessary legal requirements or safety considerations for minors in licensed establishments. For example, being accompanied by another minor does not ensure adult supervision, and requiring the minor to be the child of the licensee limits inclusivity. A special permit could imply a regulatory exception, but generally, the standard guidelines prioritize adult supervision in settings where alcohol is served. Thus, option A establishes a clear and responsible framework for minors in public dancing scenarios.
