You can't set a limit by force you have to rely on people inputting the correct information on registration. If a twelve year old tells you he is twenty five there's not a lot you can do.

The COPPA registration goes some way to helping you but again it relies on people inputting the truth.

It still doesn't stop new users putting in incorrect information.
