After some searching, and speaking to my own website administrator.

Age verification can be tricky. There are some simple codes that can be added to the php script however they can be lied to easily. With that said there are some credit card verification scripts. These scripts are bulkier and harder to install but not impossible obviously. The problem with these. Again, They can be lied to. Apparently most of them will accept prepaid cards as verification even though there is no name on them. Also, Lots of kids have "kids debit cards" with names on them. The banks that issue however use the parents age credentials for these cards.

Roland I am guessing already researched much of this since he said it was very difficult to do.

What I did find out is this. While its nearly impossible to keep under age off your site. Website owners put these easy to pass age verification scripts up to cover their ass and thats the only reason. Now the website owner "if ever questioned" can say he lied on the verification. It releases the owner from liable.
