No, with conditions !
The only limiter should be to actually have the
ability to construct and type in coherent
answers and questions. What is the parent of a child doing that they can not monitor their
child' activities. Parental control starts at home.
Have a pleasant day.

That's a pretty broad question. I do get concerned when I see young teens asking pretty important questions. If they're getting answers from people who talk official and take that advice and it's wrong, it's a little scary.
For instance, I saw a 13 year old girl ask about losing weight. She was a very active girl - into sports and the like - and she was actually a very healthy weight and she was wanting to know how to drop 15-20 pounds.
A few weeks later, I saw another question by her, this time wondering if she was now too thin (methinks someone at home said something). I gave her a site with a BMI counter and told her to plug the numbers in (I already had and she was way low). I told her if the BMI calculator came up low, she needed to talk to her school nurse or her parents.
But that's scary. Who gave her the advice on the weight loss to begin with?
I think allowing younger teens to get homework help is a great idea. Wish this had been around when my daughter needed homework help and I was scratching my head. However, some areas may need "parental controls." It is a serious consideration given some of the questions being asked.

No, some parents might be asking questions about things popular with young people. Plus, the young can give a different perspective that is beneficial.
Maybe instead of age based criteria, people should have to pass an IQ test or common sense test.

No, but i do think there should be a sex section! They can put an age limit on that, but I think a lot of people would benefit from a sex section!

No, not at all, many young people, as myself, give great advice to many people many years older than them. It's kind of age discrimination because everyone should have the right to express or give a voice while maintaining safe about it.

Technically there is. Well, kind of. If you're under 13, you're supposed to be on a family member's account or something. It's obviously not enforced.

No b/c there are categories you can pick from that seperates age groups, plus you know which answers are just for getting points.

Yes because school children take advantage of it to get answers for homework that they should really be doing theirselves...making them more stupid in the long run.
