Anyway, if a minor, or a priest, want to watch porn, or steal from Wal Mart, or hit someone, they will do it, no matter how many ridiculous barriers you put between them and their "crime".
No debate there. Of course they can access a site if they want to. But at least with a CC there is SOME level of security. If he used it his parent's CC they would see the charge and he might be busted. I think you also need to be 18 to get a CC? (not sure about that tbh).

Anyhow, the whole minor thing was the only drawback I could see from using bitcoins on a site aside from the value of the coins dropping to 0.
