EladrinStarmist I think the biggest problem with teaching someone over the net is trying to lead by example. You just can't. You can talk all you want, but until your student has seen you walk the walk you're just another talking book.
Second that.
I myself probably wouldn't teach anyone full-stop, since I find a lot of magick-related practice and theory to be pretty personal; you can teach basic concepts, but sometimes even those concepts can be skewed once you've been practising a while. When it comes to underage folk, you'd have to gauge their mental maturity beforehand - you can't just say "No underagers" or "All underagers", simply because some just won't be ready to play with fire, so to speak. And then to do it all online... I second what Eladrin says, and append that it'd be a better idea to introduce them to basic concepts, ideas, suggestions, paths, even religions, in order for them to get a broad scope on things before practising, in case they just become a clone of their teacher.
I'd say advising a mentally mature kid online would be okay. Ish. XD

I have two points to make. First, you could very well replace "occult" with "religion" and have a similar debate. When I was a child learning about the bible, I learned all the happy, inspiring stories. The teachers seemed to just push aside all the accounts of murder, rape, betrayal, etc, for an older audience.
I don't see how the occult should be any different. Instead of stories, we teach practises and technique. Children should be learning simple things like how to meditate and focus the mind. Not advanced things like binding someone's will and summoning the dead.
My second point is thus: Advanced technique is something that needs to be built up to. You need a strong foundation and understanding of basic techniques. When something is truly understood, practise is then okay. Often times, mental maturity is a requisite of true understanding.
Therefore, for underage magicians especially, a knowledgeable mentor should be present to judge when the student is understanding.
