Yes. Most Starwood Hotels have started asking for ID on check-in. They claim thiis is for "security" post 9/11, but I suspect it is to stop other people from riding on the backs on Premimium members just like the Delta Crown Room now also asks for Picture ID besides the Crown Room Card.
So, unless the kid is with you and has a id (passport?) and you pay with cash, I suspect you are going to have problems.
