Not For Children Under 13

If you have accidentally created an account for a child please contact us at [email protected] and we will immediatly and permanently delete all data associated with your account.

If you think we should allow child accounts, while still complying with COPPA, by creating a parent supervision feature, please comment on our idea board here.

Pain Scale Faces
The pain scale faces are heavily influenced by Hyperbole and a Half. We've had Hope And Stars redraw them from scratch to fit our needs and style, but Allie's drawings are great and you should read her story about where they came from. She also has a store you can order from.
