Facebook cannot offer accounts to those under the age of 13 without parental consent. However, as long as Facebook is told that the user has permission, Facebook can offer the webspace.

Kids under 13 are not allowed to have a Facebook account (according to Facebook). There is a Site designed for kids that is similar to Facebook. But if the kids are getting a FB for just the games they can go to the games website and they can play there.

You cannot join Facebook if you are below the age of 13. If someone provides fake info while registering and get caught legal action can be taken.
