I’ve never thought of Roblox as being bad. I think if it as being dangerous (for the reasons you state), but I also think of it as a for us by us kind of deal. Meaning it’s a place and a game(s) for kids.

My son isn’t allowed to play it in our house (if he goes to visit family or friends I don’t make restrictions on that), and I have the same rule for pretty much all online games including things like Fortnite. This is mostly because of voice chat.

I do think the benefits you list are an important part of the conversation that don’t get brought up much.
