Answer to Question 1

Ratification means indicating one's willingness to be bound by promises made during minority. It refers to a new promise and may be oral, written, or merely implied by conduct. However, some states require it to be in writing. A minor may ratify a voidable contract only after attaining majority. After majority is reached, silence ratifies an executed contract. A minor cannot ratify part of a contract and disaffirm another part; all or none of it must be ratified. Ratification must be made within a reasonable time after reaching majority. A reasonable time is a question of fact to be determined in light of all surrounding circumstances.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
