You can file a complaint with the poster's ISP (you will need to send them a
copy of the entire message including headers, so they can trace the message
to its point of origin). If enough people complain, the offender's account
will be terminated --- and then he/she will open another free account under
another name, but eventually the child will get tired of the game.

You can also file a complaint with google and usenet. Again, if enough
people complain, google can block their posts from the archives and/or file
a persuasive complaint with the offender's ISP.

Meanwhile, you can block the sender with most newsgroup access programs. If
you are using Outlook Express, click "Message/Block Sender" when viewing the
message. Then you won't see anything more from the child until he/she
changes his fake email address again.

And, if they cross the line and make certain types of threats, the
authorities will be able to trace the post to the originator. Even though
this person has forged the headers in an attempt to foil such a trace, he
has left a distinct trail.
