I guess I don’t understand the outrage here. Roblox said it IS a problem but also an opportunity to learn how to make the platform more secure while allowing kids to communicate and build communities.

I see it as my responsibility to make sure my kids aren’t getting into trouble. It’s great if Roblox helps, but Roblox security doesn’t guard against sex pests on the street or other games/platforms. In recent news, filing a report about misconduct after the fact is just a parent saying “I wasn’t watching my kid, why didn’t Roblox stop this?” Childish blame games and zero responsibility as a parent.

In my kid’s friends group, at least one parent is always on the group call and all the parents are very active in teaching our kids how scams, predators, and bullies work.

If the kids don’t want us around or try to hide, they’re up to something no good and will lose their internet time. If I don’t have time to watch them, I engage other parents to help. If they can’t help, my kids aren’t allowed on Roblox.
