When you verify a child account, this is the title:

Why are there asterisks? They should be o's.

There are asterisks because the words tuo and figlio have variations with the gender your talking about, for example, for a girl it would be tua and figlia. But since scratch doesn't know if you're making an account for a boy or a girl, it adds the asterisks so that it's not specifically one gender.

Oh! Thanks!
