Neither Subpart C (Prisoners) nor Subpart D (Children) applies to juveniles in the correctional systems because wardens of juvenile prisoners (unlike those for adult prisoners) act in loco parentis for juvenile offenders. This statement is false because:

A. The need for the signatures of both parents outweighs the two subparts

B. Subpart C still applies, as the potential subjects are juveniles

C. Only subpart C applies because of the need for assent forms, as a result of in loco parentis status for juveniles

D. Both subparts apply, as these individuals are under the legal age of consent and are incarcerated

The correct answer is: D - both subparts apply, as these individuals are under the legal age of consent and are incarcerated.

Explanation:

Both subparts mentioned in the question are mandatory when it comes to children in prisoners. This is because they are below their legal age of consent so they are treated differently than the adult prisoners who are well aware of their surroundings. The rule is not confined to just one part of the world, but all of them.
