    3.0

  • Common Sense says

    Safe for the fashion-forward teen; some ads.

Why We Rated This on for Ages 13 and Up

The good stuff

  • Educational value:

    A more in-depth, but appropriate look at fashion and style for the teen with an interest in fashion.
 

What to watch out for

  • Messages:

    Because of its fashion focus, the site definitely promotes shopping and consumerism.

  • Violence:

    Not an issue.

  • Sex:

    Not an issue.

  • Language:

    Not an issue.

  • Consumerism:

    Ads for teen-targeted products like make-up and skin care products aren't in your face all the time. There are plenty of promos for the print magazine.

  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About TeenVogue

Parents need to know that the online home of Teen Vogue magazine is an appealing -- and safe -- destination for teens with an interest in fashion and style. Advertising is predictably targeted toward the teen girl, but with the exception of the occasional pop-up, it's well integrated into the overall layout. Chat forums aren't moderated and rely on members to keep the community "vibrant and on track"; this seems to be working pretty well -- most users stick to the topics and use clean language.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about how the media and/or celebrity culture affect the way we think about our bodies. Do they add to the pressure to be thin? Also, are we more likely to buy the things that we see celebrities wearing? Is it necessary to spend a lot of money to have a great wardrobe and a good sense of style?
