62). Gerard's contract is voidable at his option while it is entirely executory.

63) based on the circumstances of the case.

62. Note that, under the restatement, Gerard can avoid the contract legally even though he can perform the contract duty. This is because of his mental state.

63. Evidently a minor cannot avoid a contract just because he says he lacks the legal capacity.

Certainly, the decision to accept his claims would be based on the circumstances surrounding the case.
