Click "Yes" if you're over 18....


Why do websites make you click "yes over 18"? I just do not understand why websites think this question is going to keep children out. Most 12 year olds know to click "yes"- it is not hard to figure out. Also, when they ask for your date of birth but you have to be a certain age to go on the website...I feel most kids can do basic math and figure out what year they were born to be old enough for the website. I think that this protocol needs to be re-evaluated and it needs to become a little more difficult for younger children to not have access to such sites.
