1. For participants that you do not need to communicate with directly, like children, you can activate the **Add Dependent Participant Only Role** by selecting the toggle to **YES**.
2. Dependent participants will be shown in the Event Attendance grid but will not have a constituent profile record created.
3. Dependent participants are still counted in the total number of constituents.
