It’s even worse than that.

We are somewhere between 5 and 7 years into the problems with Roblox being well documented by everything from major media outlets to national governments. It’s well past the point of blaming nievete or ignorance.

Parents are doing a cost benefit analysis and speculating that their kid won’t be one of the victims. They are paying to put their kids in harms way because they see the high liklihood of social isolation or temper tantrums to be a greater problem than risk posed by Nazis, and groomers.
