My kid is 11 and being concerned about safety and security on the net I would like to search for a safe, fun site for girls only, so whe can enjoy without me worrying too much.
Where to find a girls only online community?
Hi bytor.
The problem with your request is that the internet has no way of differentiating between a male and a female user: to an internet server, everyone is completely anonymous, so there is no guarantee, for any website, that all of the users are female or within a certain age range.
There are, however, many websites that are targeted at girls and whose user base is mostly females in that age range. Most of these websites are also heavily protected from coarse language and adult material via moderators who operate the site and wordfilters that censor explicit text.
Most of these websites are targeted at a specific interest, though, so while a website like neopets.com has a very child-friendly community and provides a great safe space to meet friends online, if she's not into neopets, she might not enjoy the site.
nick.com (Nickelodeon's website) also features highly-monitored message boards for fans of each of their shows to use to communicate to other users.
I could keep going, but I would rather advise you to run a google search for an official message board or web site for something girly that your daughter is interested in...anything from Webkinz to Tamagotchis to girl bands is bound to have a virtually all-female fanbase. I'm sorry I can't help you further, but I'm not really sure what the girls are into these days.
