That's a scary thought.
But I am sure there is an API that you can get with a proxy which shows if they are 13+ or not. I remember one I think.

You could just get their account age, and then see if they've been on ROBLOX for at least a year.

That doesn't guarantee them being 13+ though.

Yes, that works, but it wouldn'--

oh I see, but then that goes against ROBLOX's spirit to cache then filter then broadcast and then just let anyone turn off the filter

no
filter a specific string that you find only filters for 13+; if it filters, they're under 13
i'm not sure if this still works or not and i'm too lazy to try

maybe you can even do it for FilterStringAsync() (FilterStringForPlayerAsync() is deprecated)
just play around and if it doesn't work then oh well

Then if the filter allows it all of a sudden, it'll break the system and just anyone can again disable the filter.

there's no official way and it's just a temporary workaround (even if it works lol)
