It will have down if the site is meant for 18+ or 13+ so on so forth. A few sites I can recommend for kids are, Gaia Online, Ernya, Rolina, and there are a few more.
Most gaming website will tell you what the target audience is for their game(s). Try and look for a ÈFrequently Asked QuestionsÈ page, or an ÈAboutÈ page, which should tell you more details about the content of the game.
