Just because you turn 18 does not mean that online predators suddenly go away.

You're absolutely right about that; predators do not just disappear because you're over 18. However, children need adults to protect them; adults usually can protect themselves. Thus, we try to protect minors with our rule about posting their age if they're not 18. Adults can decide for themselves what information they want to give out to virtual strangers.
