So they'll stop playing that game and start playing another game.

It'd be easy enough to enforce the break at a console level instead of being confined to a game. That still doesn't rule out changing to a different console, but that's a non-trivial amount of effort for anyone that hasn't set up their entertainment system for easy swapping (which will at least draw parents' attention to the fact that their child is trying to circumvent the built-in protections, even if it doesn't actually result in them intervening).

That, and I don't know about you, but I'd consider playing an entirely different game far, far more disruptive to my enjoyment of a given game than taking a 10-minute break (or whatever it is). The only thing that suggestion accomplishes is spiting the restriction for spite's sake, rather than actually improving the situation at all.
