I'm actually quite glad I didn't go the route of running solo girl sites. I certainly had the models for it 5 years ago, but I know of only a few that would have been reliable enough to do something like this with. And even then it would have been risky.

I've seen way WAY too many posts here from program owners saying such-and-such model has crapped out on them or what-have-you. Some do well with the solo thing, but the concept does have it's headaches. Big ones.

Seriously, signed contract or not, what's to stop this girl's father from freaking out, then hiring a high-punch lawyer to come after the site owners? Really, if they want the site taken down badly enough I'm sure they'd have a pretty good shot at making it happen.
That is exactly my point.

This is a business, and in business, you can't just shoot from the hip, ESPECIALLY if there are affiliates involved.

For example, let's say I have an 18 year old daughter who had a solo girl site and I found out. I don't care what paperwork she signed, if I want to make an issue of it, it is going to be expensive, FOR EVERYBODY.

First thing I would do is sue the site owner. But that would just be the first line of "defendant". Anyone want to guess what the next few hundred/thousand lines would be?
