This all feels a bit like letting children into a nightclub and then needing to see ID every time you buy a drink.

Right? It seems to me that the filter should be at the device level by the parents.

What if they use someone else's device though? Or circumvent the filter? Come on, this is Hacker News, "we" circumvent guardrails because we can and because we know no security is perfect, often from a young age.

I love how a lot of the "this is the parents' responsibility" opinion-havers don't seem to remember what it was like to be a kid themselves and / or don't have kids of their own.

... isn't this how most bars/pubs work?

The metaphor still works, minors in pubs are, presumably, under the supervision of their parents, otherwise they have not business being there in the first place.

That's a big "presumably", lots of teenagers go out you know.
