For parents & educators
How we make technology and civics understandable without telling children what to think.
Three flexible reading levels
Ages 8-10 use shorter sentences and basic vocabulary; 11-13 adds more context and new terms; 14-17 explores systems, uncertainty and competing arguments. These are guides, not identity or age verification.
Nonpartisan by design
We explain what is known, what is disputed, why a public issue matters and what reliable sources say. We do not recommend parties or candidates to children, and we do not create false equivalence between strong evidence and unsupported claims.
Privacy by default
No accounts, comment threads, direct messages, behavioral advertisements, birth-date collection or email capture appear in the younger-reader area. A child's reading-level selection is not saved as a profile.
Editorial review
Adaptations should retain the factual meaning of the original source and remove graphic or unnecessarily frightening details. Adults are encouraged to read and discuss the linked original source.
Questions
Help children ask: What happened? How do we know? What do different people think? What is still uncertain?
