to be as neutral as possible with regard to gender, race, color, religion,
and age. Within the articles, the site takes turns referring to infants,

teens, unless otherwise specified.

Emails Claiming
to Be From Kidzopedia
Occasionally, in a scam known as "phishing,"
mass emailers will send messages that claim to be from KidsHealth. They
may use our name, logo, or employee email addresses in fraudulent emails
trying to obtain valuable information from consumers and businesses. These
con artists know that people trust Kidzopedia. That's why they may use
our name or that of some other well-known organization to trick people
into believing that they are dealing with a legitimate request for personal
information. These fraudulent emails often create a false sense of urgency
intended to prompt the recipient to take action.
Kidzopedia does not send out unsolicited
emails or commercial endorsements, and does not ask for detailed personal
information. If you get this sort of email appearing to be from Kidzopedia,
you should assume that it is fraudulent and avoid clicking any link within
the email.
