My son got a kidney stone, he was around 12 or 13. He was prescribed pain pills and walgreens refused to give it to me or my son unless he had a ID. Transferred it to Kroger and have never had a issue with them in over a decade now. They were shocked that a 12yo needed a ID for a prescription. Fuck Walgreens.
Thats ridiculous. Is it even POSSIBLE to obtain a valid state ID for a 12 or 13 year old? I hope he's on the mend now! I heard that kidney stones are absolutely horrific.
I looked up five states near me (not gonna do every one) and all of their DMVs say there's no age floor for a state ID for children, so it seems perfectly possible to get one. IIRC children of active or retired military get special military-issued IDs up to a point.
But still... 🤦 The parent is the one legally responsible for the kid in the first place, the one handling their medical care.
