[Avodah] Status of katan

[M Cohen via Avodah]

RJR writes .. The minchat chinuch in mitzvah 17 [subsection 14] makes the
following comment, "it appears in truth that a minor is subject to
commandments, just that it's not applicable to say that the Torah warns him,
since he is not a being of wisdom (bar daat) but in truth he is bound to
mitzvot."

See igros moshe when he discusses the schar for mitzvos done while a person
is a katon.
He says they receive schar as a mitzuveh v'oseh ! (not as an aino mitzuve
v'oseh)
