Don't you have different public access computer areas for adults and
children?  We do here, and I have those areas on different subnets of the
same class C network.  That being the case, I have our web filter (Untangle
NG Firewall) configured to apply the appropriate web filter policy based on
IP address range.  Using that strategy, the age in the patron profile and
the PC reservation system don't even come into play.
