What Parents Need to Know
About RocktheVote.org
Parents need to know that this site's primary goal is to inspire young people of voting age to vote and become politically active. There are many celebrities, such as Sheryl Crow who are featured. This might get young visitors interested in the site, but there are only a few pages on the site that would be relevant to visitors not old enough to vote. The organization's mission is "to engage and build the political power of young people in order to achieve progressive change in our country," and both the organization and the site and appear to have a slight bias toward left-wing causes and aren't entirely nonpartisan.
