We had a Byzantine Catholic family at church tonight. They had come up for communion and the deacon wasn't sure what to do since the kids would normally be too young to receive. The priest made it all right though, and he administered communion to each of the kids. The priest said that's the first time he could remember that happening where there was confusion because of the differences between the Roman and Byzantine rites, and he's been a priest about 40 years now.
