What Parents Need to Know
About Habbo
Parents need to know that ads and foul, sexist, and homophobic language run thick on this popular teen chat and gaming site based inside a virtual hotel. It's not rare for avatars to sling "I ain't Fred Flinestone but I can make your bed rock miss new booty" or " Fat Fu'Ckk" in the public rooms. But, on the plus side, moderators can ban users for hours, days, or even permanently for offenses. Teens buy Habbo Coins to pay for stuff to decorate their personal hotel room, play games, and buy music, and more. The coins are only 20 cents each, but when you consider that users must pay to do almost anything engaging on the site (other than walking around and participating in chats), the cents can add up to dollars rather quickly.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about safety in virtual worlds. What kind of information should be off-limits, and what's OK to tell people? Families can also discuss consumerism in virtual worlds. What are users really getting in return for their cash by buying pretend stuff in this pseudo-world?

Save your kids from endless drama and bullying.
Habbo, it's THE place for a kid to have some fun and chat with other teens in a safe environtment - says Sulake. But when you're actually on it for a day you'll see users trying to do long distance dating and showing severe sexual behaviour. On top of that users have a certain way of making people believe they're friends. But they're just friends for pixelised properties. Note that games like Habbo are entirely "private" which means that every user could be someone else then he says he is. All in all, Habbo is not the place to let your kids go on. It only produces constant drama and a bullying attitude to your kids. It will not educate your kid in any way except how to ruin peoples lives and show off their body.
- I rate this title on for age 14 and give it
- My highlights are:
- Safety isn't an issue
- User content is age appropriate
Perfect for teenagers but no one younger than 13
i been on Habbo.com for 3 years & it all depends on who you have as friends b/c you have some users who are very mean & you have some users that are pretty nice =D & nobody has to know who you are b/c habbo does not allow you to upload pictures & if you do say a bad word it comes up as "bobba". But habbo is very fun but i will say it is mainly for teenagers ie.. 14-18
