Honestly, the only way we would know is if you left a comment saying "I'm 10" or something, or we received a notice from your parent. That gives us actual knowledge that you are underaged, and we disable your account and take further steps at that point. We aren't responsible if users lie during registration, but we do take action when we find out.
