It can also can be said that it is not the responsibility of local admins todo much of anything, we are just santa little helpers. Still if we encounter a user who we consider to violate some rule we are encouraged to use the tools afforded to us or report it.

I agree with your summation, besides I fail to see what an admin can do if a kid reach for the big bag of excuses and say that he is actually is above 13. Certainly if a user has openly stated that they are underage, feel free to report it to Staff - that allows them to globally block the account.

However, I have to disagree with your first statement - age is definitely personal information, and is considered so by Wikia. Users are welcome to disclose their age should they wish, but they should not be forced nor feel pressured into doing so by fellow users.
