Thais good, but doesn't address the OSM side of things. Historically, aka pre 2013 revision of COPPA, we couldn't touch sub 13teeners with a long pole. That may have improved a bit, theoretically, with the 2013 revision of COPPA, but nobody has actually done the foot- and paperwork involved to find out and address any issues.
I don't want to dig too deep in to the things that might be considered problematic given general US paranoia on such topics, but I would consider completely ignoring this a bit risky.
