"Also, don't forget the pervs who would be attracted to a childrens own site!" The admins could keep an eye on that easily enough; rig it up so that PM's are monitored, and that any known/suspected-with-proof pervs could be banned on short notice. PHPBB also has a facility to automatically convert known obscene words into whatever you want them to convert to - such as "shit" turning into "shoot" once it gets posted, or somesuch (you as the admin get to edit that list and their conversions.) I remember playing with it back when DAZ' forums were just a hidden test area. /P
