Correct. Leaving aside any discussion about whether or not you actually do have to have identification media at all (I'm quite expecting Phil to come swooping in at any moment about that), ID isn't a requirement if the passenger is under the age of eighteen.

Officially, no, but I know of a few TSOs who do. Mostly, it seems to be asking the child what their name is, or if they're excited about going to... wherever. Especially if it's Disney World or something.
Whatever their reasoning, it has no bearing on the screening process.

These I can't answer, given that I don't know.
No experience at all with the WBI devices.
