  Charge (youth)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Charges were the responsibility of the nobleman they were charged to, and they were usually expected to be treated as guests or a member of the household.
Charges were at times used more or less openly as hostages, ensuring that the parents kept in line.
Today, the word is still used to mean anyone that a person is responsible for, such as a parent or chaperone's children, a supervisor's employees, or a nurse or doctor's patients.

 Building Blocks for Youth - Amicus Brief
In addition, youth were asked about their experiences in the juvenile and criminal courts, about perceptions of procedural and substantive justice, and about their experiences in and reactions to pre-adjudicatory confinement in detention centers and jails.
Thus, African-American youth were more likely to be detained prior to adjudication, formally charged in juvenile court, waived to adult criminal court, ordered to out- of-home placement at disposition, and incarcerated in juvenile facilities and adult prisons, than white youth charged with the same offenses.
White youth constituted 59% of cases petitioned but only 35% of cases waived to adult court, while African-American youth charged with similar offenses represented 39% of cases petitioned but were 63% of cases waived to adult court.

 Earl of Chatham, REPLY TO WALPOLE ON A CHARGE OF YOUTH, MARCH 6, 1741.
Whether youth can be imputed to any man as a reproach, I will not, sir, assume the province of determining; but surely age may become justly contemptible, if the opportunities which it brings have passed away without improvement, and vice appears to prevail when the passions have subsided.
Much more, sir, is he to be abhorred, who, as he has advanced in age, has receded from virtue, and becomes more wicked with less temptation; who prostitutes himself for money which he can not enjoy, and spends the remains of his life in the ruin of his country.
In the first sense, sir, the charge is too trifling to be confuted, and deserves only to be mentioned to be despised.
