TODAY'S Atlanta Journal-Constitution had a big article on Webkinz. It mostly concentrated on children's use of the site, but talked about parents and other adults being involved as well.
One of the big concerns has been the Clubhouse. There are actually two Clubhouses. Both have differently decorated rooms—there are gym rooms, for instance, garden rooms, reading rooms, etc.—but one has carefully chosen phrases that people can use to each other. Everyone can use this Clubhouse. The KinzPlus Clubhouse requires parental permission to use because you can type what you like, although there are forbidden words. If you type one of them, it turns red and you are not allowed to post your sentence.
I wandered into the KinzPlus gym one night to see what it was all about and some dip was wandering around saying "Do you want to make out?" Lo and behold, by next night the KinzPlus Clubhouse had been shut down.
