![]() They feel more comfortable confiding in literal strangers on the internet about their troubles- both offline and online, then their family. I'm only 20, so I've seen firsthand what happens when parents have a communication breakdown with their kids. Its fine to give them a bit more privacy as they get older, but make sure to be actively engaged in the conversation so that they feel safe to open up to you when somethings happening online. Check what your young childern are doing on the computer. In short, remember parents: A tablet is not a replacement for a babysitter or caregiver. ![]() Which is fine in my opinion, but I don't think its really that safe of a place for the under 13 crowd to be anymore (Even if I have reservations about the under 13 crowd being on sites with social media aspects in the first place but thats a different topic for a different place) I think Roblox is shifting towards an older audience. If youre a parent, or know one, let it be known that Roblox, as of now, is not in it's best shape and that there are plenty of better, safer and more educational games for kids to play. It happens outside of the platform, but if i was part of the staff of Roblox and i saw all these cases happening, maybe i should consider that it is not the best idea to let developers direct our players to these platforms in the first place and that we should be cutting players of directly accessing these other non-child friendly platforms through links inside of Roblox and to give a better, safer and more accessible way for devs to make Discord-like communication hubs inside of Roblox, so for me, saying that it is a problem outside of Roblox, just doesn't do it when they can easily act to prevent it of happening in the first place (and for me, it also shows their lack of care towards actually making Roblox child-safe). You could say that this is a problem of the other apps and that it is THEIR responsibility to moderate their communities and not Roblox, sure. Without talking about all the slop that is marketed towards children inside Roblox, simply made for them to waste their time and parent's money on it, i know theres some cool stuff for kids inside of it, but when i think about all the time parents would have to spend monitoring their kids on the platform just so they dont run into a bad path, it makes me think if Roblox should really be marketed as a safe place for kids and if we should let them near the platform in the first place, with that said, as of today, i dont recommend to let younger audiences access Roblox.Įver since ive started joining and interacting with more communities of the platform ive realised what large portion of the players already know, theres a lot of non-child-friendly content in and around it, there is also a crazy lack of moderation inside of the platform, which leads to countless bypassed content, containing content harmful to younger audiences and it doesnt take a lot for a kid interested in the games to go on a quick google search about Roblox, find these kind of topics and then get them in a bad path early in their life.Īnother problem to point out is how easy it is for a kid to get in contact with predators through the platform: a kid joins a communications server on Discord through the links in Roblox, starts talking a lot with an older member of the community in private, and then we all know what happens.
