Comment on There's nothing stopping an 8 year old child from just taking their parent's ID to do Age Verification...

  Actually, it’s been proven to be a very ineffective deterrent in child psychology studies. It just teaches them to not do it when your actively present and try even harder to not get caught.

  Plus the lifelong psychological scars of being assaulted by a figure you trusted to keep you safe from harm but those are a separate topic.

    Yep. Corporeal punishment doesn’t make good kids; it makes good liars and sneaks.

      Corporeal punishment

      What about spiritual punishment?

    No arguments from me there. I was saying when I was a kid if I had done something like that (and got caught) it wouldn’t have been a gentle, loving conversation about why it was wrong I’d have gotten. I certainly wasn’t advocating it.

    I still don’t trust any of my relatives enough to open up properly. It eventually gets used against me in an argument anyway.

  IF they find out.

  My mom kept her purse by the door, mostly, not in her bedroom. If age verification had been an issue, I would have sneaked downstairs at night, slipped out her DL, taken a photo, and registered on whatever sites I needed.

  If they sent some sort of verification to her email, I’d just log in, answer it, and delete the email. Of course I know her passwords, I showed her how to do it, and I’m always fixing some dumb thing she did.

  Any kid is going to figure this out faster than me.

  How would they find out if you put it back immediately after using?

    Parents have a way of knowing shit like that, believe me. It certainly wouldn’t be a risk I’d needlessly take; that’s for sure.

      Haha dude what are you talking about? Parents not knowing this shit it how we got here. Parents are so exhausted from working they are not thinking about this stuff.

      Parents aren’t psychic

        True, but they can tell when their card is put back in the wrong pocket, or upside down, or other tiny clues that hint of someone messing with their stuff. Kids sometimes think parents know more than they do, or “have eyes in the back of their head,” simply because kids don’t pay attention to the same details their parents might. Their parents can deduce what happened from clues, clues that the kids don’t realize they left.

        A very careful child might get away with it, but if their parents are equally careful they’ll probably notice something is amiss. I guess it all comes down to “your mileage may vary.”

      Thats why you get better at it. I used to have photographic memory when I was doing stuff like that. Even putting items in same orientation.
