But surely a 17 yr old is still a minor!

The 55-year-old Iranian woman, Fatemeh, has been judged to be, "at extremely high and imminent risk of having a catastrophic cardiac event such as heart attack, or sudden death due to arrhythmias" by a doctor asked to review her medical history.

Fatemeh, who asked to remain anonymous, said Australian Border Force officials made the offer conditional on her son staying behind [on Nauru]

She said her son, who is 17, has mental health problems [I wonder why, could it be life on Nauru?] , has no-one to stay with and is very dependent on her.
