This has already been implement in Thailand. How it works is when you sign up for an game account(almost all Asia games) you need some sort equivalent to your social security # in USA. So, game servers only allowing users accessing to X-Y time depends on your age.

Also to add, in Thailand is it against the law for Internet cafe to allow students in DURING school times and late at night.

This result in, kids using parents/grandparent SSN to sign up an account. And internet cafe offer cloths, for kids to switch out of theirs uniform during school hours.

The system might not be the same, but this is just an idea how it was done here in Thailand.


EDIT: The system was design for kids below 18, the rest have no restriction.
