What is the youngest (psychologically and therefore practically, rather than legally) age at which a person becomes recruitable. Children make potentially formidable spies for many reasons, not least of which is the lack of expectation among adults whose great (parental) naïveté is to underestimate, not only, child intelligence but also the mental and emotional sophistication of some children. What or who are the best historical precedents, and do governments around the world, including our own U.S. Government, pursue this line of inquiry?
