    When you were 5, you personally paid a yearly income tax of some kind?

    Stuff like VAT or sales tax, which you probably weren’t paying either, don’t count since they were talking about yearly taxes.

      Child actors and actresses pay income tax. Children who work in family businesses often make a wage and are taxed on that.

          Family businesses aren’t unlikely where I’m from. I worked in multiple family businesses. Generally they are right- not even kids get a free lunch anymore. Even as kids we don’t get a free trial.
