    Sober is single-handedly responsible for me being able to use Linux for my youngest kid’s computer too. Absolutely awesome.

      Given the prevalence of predators on Roblox and the company’s absolute ignorance of the issue, I have some concerns about your parenting here.

        As long as he doesn’t let the kid play unsupervised, I don’t think there’s a problem outside of using things that might be the result of child exploitation.

          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

            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.
