> That wouldn't be a problem in the EU. Children are not able to consent to a contract

Same in the US. However I can think of a couple of things that might counter that in some countries.

1. In many countries there is an exception to the rule that minors cannot consent to a contract when the contract is for necessities, such as food, clothing, or shelter.

Lollipops are food so someone could at least try to argue they are necessities.

2. One might argue that the contract is between Amazon and the account holder, not Amazon and the person who placed the order.

That's how things work in many other situations where a child can run up a large bill on a parent's account.

For example if your child was playing with your thermostat in the middle of winter and changed the settings so that it was using your emergency backup resistance heating instead of your much more efficient heat pump and this resulted in a huge electric bill I doubt you'd have much success arguing that because the electric company does not have a valid contract with the kid you don't have to pay.
