Reliable Age Verification is nearly impossible and your antecdote gives weight to that assertion. Your comment brought my mind to voice actors. They easily change their voices. Deep fakes also come to mind.

So what is a solution? Parents. What about those that don't have parents? Surely they have guardians. Adults who guide the next generation instead of delegating them to technology.

Voice actors, deep fakes, replay attacks (recordings from a TV/computer/phone) - mitigated. As in my earlier comment where teen voices have a signature, these all have unique signatures as well. The ongoing part is staying up-to-date with the latest synthetic (deep fakes/AI generated) as those are getting better each day.

How do you mitigate kids recording their parent's voices and playing them back to the AI?
That would be considered a "replay attack" and recorded audio carries a unique signature: BLOCKED
