The County of Los Angeles filed suit today against social media gaming platform Roblox alleging that the platform failed to protect children from predatory behavior. The lawsuit alleges that while Roblox markets itself as a safe digital space for creativity, it is in reality an unsafe online environment that has become a breeding ground for predators.
My son doesn’t play roblox, isn’t allowed to play roblox, and doesn’t want to play roblox. I got weird vibes from it when he was small and I looked into, and just didn’t let him. He played Mario and stuff like that, usually as a family.
A decade later, My son has friends. He has at 12, no resentment for not playing roblox, bro dog doesn’t even want a phone that badly yet. Its, cool and I’m probably lucky.
Why do kids have to play roblox to socialize? Why will there be resentment? He resented the neighborhood boy the day he asked him to come over and play outside with him, and the boy said he’d rather play on his computer. My son was upset with the friend, not me. He always preferrs real life play to games online. He wasn’t mad at me for it, he was sad his friend would rather sit alone in his house (parents weren’t home) than come play in our yard.
