Under the living-with-minors restriction, what is the key exception allowing an offender to live with a minor?

• A. If the offender is a relative by blood
• B. If they are a parent, stepparent, adoptive parent, or legally appointed guardian
• C. If the offender is married to the minor
• D. If the minor is over 18

Answer: (B)

The key idea is that the living-with-minors restriction allows an exception when the offender has a direct caregiving role with the child. If the offender is a parent, stepparent, adoptive parent, or legally appointed guardian, that person already has the legal authority and responsibility to care for the minor, so living together is permitted under the restriction. This preserves family stability and ensures the child remains in a supervised, lawful household.

Other options don’t fit because simply being related by blood doesn’t grant the legal guardianship or parental role in the same way, marrying the minor isn’t a guaranteed basis for cohabitation under this rule, and a minor over 18 is no longer a minor, which falls outside the restriction’s scope.
