    Do you have misplaced fingers, a broken keyboard, or are you under 13 yourself?

    Because that would explain a lot of things.

    And about your question: you want to know if it it's illegal to display certain stuff to children OR do you want to know if it's illegal to display that warning message? I couldn't figure that one out!

    Legal. Irrelevant, but legal.

    Perhaps I'm very lame or something, but can you tell me what
    "information on the COPPA " would be? Is COPPA some kind of standard/policy?

    AHA

    So you want to display information on this COPPA to children?
    It would be very strange if it'd be illegal to tell children what they can't do!

    It's LEGAL, so the direct answer is "No, you may not sue Karl Moore."
