I think a kids section would be fine and there's plenty of mods on throughout the day to regulate it as it is.
As for a chatroom I think it's safer all round for kids to use MSN messenger. The reason being is parents can be selective as to who their child can have in their contacts list. For example, say Alex made some friends at a racing event, the chances are Wendy will have met their parents etc and they could be added to Alex's contact list. At least that way the parents are effectively being the 'moderators' to their kids.
I think to change the K9 chatroom and all the functions required to give 'moderator' time to parents, block everyone else who they don't know from speaking to their child etc would be expensive, and I'm sure it's costly enough as it is.
