What parents need to know

Parents need to know that this site is part of the Everything Girl Web site, an uber-site that aggregates several girl-targeted games mostly having to do with fashion, dress-up, and toys. There are loads of ads and some of the ads are disguised as games.

Educational value: Not applicable.
Positive messages: The message is that fashion, dress-up, being pretty, and imitating teen-speak is something to aspire to. Also that hot pink is the only color for girls.
Violence: Not applicable.
Sex: Not applicable.
Language: Some of the characters' comments have an edge to them, such as "I don't think so!" and "gross-o-matic."
Consumerism: DivaStarz is just one portion of this site, which is really an online catalog that hooks girls with games and activities (many based on the products for sale), and lets you make wishlists and actual purchases.
Drinking, drugs, & smoking: Not applicable.
Privacy & safety: Not applicable.
