Roblox is seemingly exempt from Apple’s screen time blocks

I am a firm believer in teaching children to use technology in moderation. My kids have better boundaries with their tablets than most adults I know. But then shit like this happens and it’s a good reminder that capitalists are intentionally addicting children to their platforms in order to increase their profits by a fraction of a percent.
Also, if your kid is naive enough to believe that only fellow children play Roblox, they do not have the skills needed to navigate Roblox safely and they are being unknowingly exposed to pedophiles on a regular basis.
My kids know Peace, Land, and Bread well enough to ask for it by name. The new Magic School Bus is good too. A little lib on climate change because the can’t advocate for collective and direct action on a kid’s show, but it does discuss the brutalities of climate change very well
