Up to what age does a child go out under his mother's eruv without a separate eruv being placed for him?
Synopsis
A child of six or younger goes out by virtue of his mother's eruv. Once he reaches seven, a separate eruv must be placed for him. The Mishnah Berurah and Magen Avraham note a possible distinction based on whether the child is precocious.
