Good in theory but can you actually picture parents watching their kids play Roblox every time so carefully they don’t miss them talking with the wrong people?
I mean…that doesn’t sound remotely realistic
Correct. It’s much easier to just set the chat controls to “no one”.

Also sounds good in theory but kids often want to play with their friends so good luck trying to isolate them like that
Plus, I’d put money at least 95% of parents aren’t going to want or be able to make comprehensive enough parental control schemes to do more than filter out violence and curse words, hardly effective against child exploitation
Plus with them basically shutting down the FBI…I’d say don’t let them play it at all
I don’t care about what other parents do, I know what we do. The kids can chat as much as they want with their friends - outside of Roblox.
Good policy but unfortunately we all do have to care a little bit about what other parents do because they’re causing problems for society at large that we can all reasonably fix with smart policy
Supervision isn’t sat down watching them the entire time. It’s keeping an eye on them and monitoring what they are doing. And maybe have whatever they’re playing on set up in a space that’s easily viewable.
Well then there’s no realistic way to actually supervise what they’re doing in Roblox because you would have no idea they’re talking to creepy adults every single day for years unless you actually monitor them
It’s much easier if you talk to your child. Who is that person? Are they a friend from school? What kind of things do they talk to you about? And so on. You don’t need to be watching 24/7, you just need to be checking and also talking with your kid about things.
