I had the same question and I found this - https://www.dol.gov/general/topic/youthlabor/agerequirements

I mean, you'd have to change our whole world order for that. A lot of people under 18 need jobs to support their family or themselves. Hell, even with wealthier families it's not uncommon for kids to have weekend or summer jobs to save up or have some pocket money.

The real issue is why is Trump hiring them to be around his "place of residence".
