What about DOL rules?
The Department of Labor, as well as State Labor organizations set standards for minimum ages, minimum wages, hours that can be work each day and each week, all designed to protect children from abusive labor practices. Rules vary from industry to industry and from state to state. However, children working in a business owned by their parents in a non-hazardous capacity are EXEMPT from any Fair Labor Standards Act provisions related to Child Labor Rules.

The key point here is that the federal government and state governments are confident that you will have the best interests of your child at the forefront of any employment decisions you make in your sole proprietorship. This means that you have no reporting or compliance responsibilities related to those concerns and limit as to amount of hours or process.
