Hi Ron, A big thing is to differentiate between "errors" and "warnings".
Most things should be warnings, only literally impossible things should be errors. Thus, a parent having a child at age 10 should be a warning (even younger parents have been recorded after all), but a parent being younger than their child, that should be an error. Also, such age checks should only matter for biological children, I've gotten warnings from software because a step mother was "too old" to have a child at that age (no matter that she didn't actually have that child).
