aren't we missing the point! they can set the age to 75 if they wish but they're is no way to enforce it except by using a retinal scan to get into the site and somehow i can't see that happening any time soon, and if it did i'm sure people would find find a way round it. (proxy retinal scans 
)
i think the better way to go would be to have classes in school teaching kids not to put any personal stuff on any site and the reason why. education is the only way to go. advertise the horror stories and make people more aware of what their kids are doing. put a key logger on your pc. check what your young kids are up to and and if need be restrict their access. at least make it harder for them to screw up than it is.
i've seen really tech savvy kids of 15, 16, 17, putting stupid shit on the net simply because they haven't learned that you only share what you don't mind being seen.
