I think you are
The letter 'X'
I am four corners
The shape of the letter is four corners, meeting at a point
I both destroy and tantalize
X can be a symbol for deletion, or a film rating later adopted by pornography
I intersect
The shape of the letter, again
Children should not watch me
Again refering to "X-rated" films

$\begingroup$ @MichaelRize I prefer to make riddles very literal (e.g. the word "I" always used for the same thing, so "I sound like" if it's a homophone), but everyone has their own style - don't let yourself be pressured too much! :-) $\endgroup$ Mar 3, 2015 at 21:20
