    Roblox has robust parental controls, including blocking all forms of chat entirely. If parents fail to use them, as is nearly always the case in modern cases where children are chatting with predators, that’s on the parents. There literally isn’t a solution that isn’t either require an id to access online services, which is a no go in any intelligent society, or disabled chat on any game that a child could reasonably access, which would kill online gaming entirely.

      If they have parental controls, I definitely agree they’re doing a sizable chunk of their job right there. I just thought it was worth mentioning as it wasn’t part of your “doing everything you can do” bit.
