Hoping to help his daughter avoid future safety risks, he wanted to link her account to a Family Center that gave him parental controls. But the support nightmare continued, as Discord informed him that there is currently no way to “change the status of a Discord account if it was created as 18+.”

In the future, Discord plans to roll out global age checks that would rely on AI and other methods to detect and verify users like Frey’s daughter, who should be marked as a teen.

The fix is to allow account age to be rolled to “minor” and it is somehow hard coded to stop any change except to allow users to be older. Discord, you enabling Epstein types to find kids?
