XBox Live Age Restrictions

I'm getting an XBox for Christmas and I was wondering, does the age you enter when you sign up for XBox live have any effect on what games you play or what you can buy in the marketplace?
If so, should I enter a false date of birth so I can access it?
I know that if you're under 18 you need a parent with a windows live account, but does that enable you to access everything?
