When can a minor disaffirm a contract they entered into?

A minor has the legal ability to disaffirm a contract they entered into at any time before they reach adulthood, which typically means before they turn 18 years old in most jurisdictions. This right is based on the principle that minors are not fully capable of understanding the legal implications of their actions, which protects them from being bound by contracts that they may not fully comprehend or that may not be in their best interests.

This ability to disaffirm is a protective measure that allows minors to void contracts and seek to return to their original position, free from any obligations created by the contract. Additionally, once a minor reaches the age of majority, they may choose to ratify the contract, but until that point, they maintain the right to disaffirm it.

The other options limit the minor's ability to disaffirm in ways that are not consistent with contract law, which recognizes the ongoing right to disaffirm until adulthood is reached. For example, suggesting that disaffirmation could only occur during the first six months would impose an arbitrary time constraint that doesn't align with legal principles. Similarly, the presence of a guardian does not negate the minor's inherent right to disaffirm, and requiring the disaffirmation to occur only after the contract is executed contradicts the rights
