: Many police departments have policies to use the "least restrictive" means possible for minors. Handcuffing a teen is often only permitted if they are a flight risk or a danger to themselves/others [4].
In many jurisdictions, there are specific rules regarding the handcuffing of teenagers ("juveniles"):
: Handcuffs can compress the radial or ulnar nerves, leading to "handcuff neuropathy" (numbness or loss of motor function) [1].
If your interest is in the hobby of escapology (the art of escaping from restraints):
: Professional escapologists always check the double-lock mechanism to ensure the cuffs don't tighten during a performance.
: Being restrained in certain positions (like face down) can make breathing difficult and can be fatal [3]. 2. Legal Rights of Minors
Restraints, specifically handcuffs, can cause permanent injury if not used with extreme caution.
