Why We Rated This on for Ages 9 and Up

The good stuff

  • Educational value:

    Not an issue.

  • Messages:

    The site creators say that its system of earning and spending "soccer dollars" on virtual items can help teach financial responsibility.
 

What to watch out for

  • Violence:

    There's no blood or extreme violence, but avatars can throw mud at each other.

  • Sex:

    Not an issue.

  • Language:

    Not an issue.

  • Consumerism:

    Kids can't access much of the site's best content without a paid membership.

  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About PlanetSoccerLive

Parents need to know that kids can play for free at this soccer-themed virtual world, but a premium membership buys you a customizable avatar and provides access to pre-scripted chat, multiplayer games and more.
