משנה: נָשִׁים עֲבָדִים וּקְטַנִּים פְּטוּרִין מִן הַסּוּכָּה. כָּל קָטָן שֶׁאֵינוֹ צָרִיךְ לְאִמּוֹ חַיָיב בַּסּוּכָּה. מַעֲשֶׂה וְיָלְדָה כַלָּתוֹ שֶׁל שַׁמַּי הַזָּקֵן וּפִיחֵת אֶת הַמַּעֲזִיבָה וְסִיכֵּךְ עַל גַּבֵּי הַמִּיטָּה בִּשְׁבִיל הַקָּטָן:

הלכה: אֵי זֶהוּ קָטָן. דְּבֵית רִבִּי יַנַּאי אָמְרֵי. כָּל שֶׁהוּא צָרִיךְ לְאִמּוֹ שֶׁתְּקַנְּחֶנּוּ. רִבִּי יוֹחָנָן אָמַר. כָּל שֶׁהוּא נֵיעוֹר מִשְּׁנָתוֹ וְקוֹרֵא. אִימָּא. תַּנֵּי רִבִּי הוֹשַׁעְיָה. קָטָן שֶׁאֵינוֹ צָרִיךְ לְאִמּוֹ חַיָיב בַּסּוּכָּה וְיוֹצֵא בְּעֵירוּבָהּ שֶׁלְאִמּוֹ.

HALAKHAH: What is a minor104Whose parents do not have to bring him to the sukkah.? In the house of Rebbi Yannai they said, any who needs his mother to cleanse him. Rebbi Joḥanan said, any who awakes from his sleep and cries “Mamma”105Babli 28b.. Rebbi Hoshaia stated: Any minor who does not need his mother is obligated for the sukkah but goes out with his mother’s eruv106If his mother made an eruv to move her Sabbath boundary on a Sabbath or holiday, it is not necessary to make a separate eruv for the child. Since the mother is not obligated in matters of sukkah, her status there cannot influence his status in matters of eruv teḥumim..
