Final answer:

After reading the Miranda Rights to minors, officers must ask if the minor understands their rights and whether they are willing to answer questions without an attorney present.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Juvenile Procedures directive requires that, after reading the Miranda Rights to a minor, an officer must ask the minor the following two questions to ensure they understand their rights:

1) "Do you understand these rights as they have been read to you?" and 2) "Knowing and understanding your rights as I have explained them to you, are you willing to answer my questions without an attorney present?"

The minor's responses to each of these questions must be documented on the Miranda Rights for Minors Form.
