To ensure girls' safety in public chats, Mattel devised a limited vocabulary of 2000 words the girls can use on the site, designed to prevent use of sexual language, profanity or hurtful words such as "stupid" or "hate".

that seems stupid

I'm sure it limits the girls to useful everyday phrases like:

"Let's go shopping!"
"When I grow up, I want to be a model"
"Let's have a slumber party!"

and more...

"Let's bring all our food back up! We can do it with our friends!"

And of course, now I am going to spend the rest of the evening making up really rude phrases out of "innocent" words.
