Hello and Merry Christmas

I just recently found out that I have a 12 year old that joined my group

Is there a age required to join groups IO?

Just curious before I let this one go.

I think it would depend on your group and its purpose and goals and content For boy or girl scouts 12 is not that young !

The wording of the TOS implies that the TOS applies to group owners, not subscribers. But even if the TOS applies to both owners and non-owners, the TOS applies only to people who *register*. It is not required to register with Groups.io in order to join a mailing list.

Hello Bruce

Yes it does, the parent¡¯s are aware, so I was told but I¡¯m not certain

So I don¡¯t think I am going to keep this member.

It¡¯s a Christmas group so nothing out of line is ever discussed. Just a lot of recipes and friendly chatter about Christmas.

Still, not to comfortable because this child is asking to speak to Santa over the phone and I don¡¯t want to cause problems or maybe create one.

Thank you

Sugar

"If you are under 13 years of age, you are not authorized to use the Service, with or without registering."

That seems pretty clear to me.
