This would be if people want to get a FL ID card for their child. The website is incorrect however. They will issue FL ID Cards for individuals as young as 5. They need a certified copy of their birth certificate and their social security card. These are extremely helpful for law enforcement if the child is abducted or goes missing because generally speaking the pictures are of good quality on the DL/ID website we use. Secondly, the parents can attach their emergency information to the card so when we pull it up we know who to call.
