Child-friendly policy

Kid-friendly policy

Historyforkids! is largely intended for middle schoolers (young teenagers). With this in mind, we make every effort to provide material that, while accurate and complete, is appropriate for children to read. We have therefore phrased some rather salacious stories in deliberately innocent terms. Adults may wish to go elsewhere for racier versions.

At the same time, we realize that community standards vary widely, and what we see as innocent may be offensive to you or to your community. Please let us know if this is the case; sometimes we can arrange for you to have a mirror on your server that blocks those particular pages.
