Hi,
Wow, five girls? You are busy. LOL Okay, is the security light staying on at all times? Do you hear anything when you turn the key? For example, do you hear a click?
I will need you to check a few things for me. First, confirm that fuse 33 in the under-hood fuse box is good. In addition to the fuse, make sure there is power to and from it.
Here is a link you may find helpful:

Next, see if it will start if you place the shifter in neutral. If that changes nothing, I need you to locate fuses 42 and 43 in the same fuse box and check them as well. Check for power too.
Last, there is a 250-amp fusible link mounted at the battery fusible link box. It is fusible link A. Inspect it to make sure it hasn't failed.
If they are good, you will need a helper to perform this test. At the starter, there will be a heavy gauge black wire with a red tracer. It should have battery voltage (12v) at all times. Confirm that. If it does, have a helper turn the key to the start position while you check the smaller gauge black wire with a white tracer for power. This wire should only have power when the key is in the start position.
If it doesn't, I suspect the intelligent power distribution center is faulty. The relays for the starter are integral to a printed circuit board and are not repairable.
Let me know what you find or if you have questions.
Take care,
Joe
