I've always felt as though it's best to avoid ERP altogether unless you've known the other role-player(s) involved for enough time to safely judge whether they're of legal age and of the necessary level of maturity to deal with it.
That's the stance I take. It helps immensely to filter out those who are only looking to get off on some ERP and those that stick it out and aren't discouraged by someone telling them that they don't know them well enough to risk it tend to be the better and more stable options for that sort of role-play in the long run.
On the other hand, though, it's probably better for someone to experiment online rather than in the real world. I won't lie - engaging in ERP during my mid-late teens helped me come to terms with my bisexuality and I don't regret exploring that side of me online rather than in the real world back when I was still rather naive regarding such matters.
