Roblox Boosts Child Safety Measures
Popular online gaming platform Roblox has announced changes to enhance child safety features, following criticism from parents and experts. The updates aim to provide more control to parents and guardians, ensuring a safer environment for young users.
Roblox, with over 200 million monthly active users, has faced concerns regarding its safety features. The platform allows users to create and play a wide range of games, but some have raised concerns about the potential for children to be exposed to mature content or interact with strangers. In response, Roblox has introduced new parental controls, allowing parents to limit chat functionality, restrict access to certain games, and monitor their child's activity.

The changes come as part of a broader effort to improve online safety for children. According to a report by the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, online gaming platforms like Roblox can be vulnerable to exploitation by predators. Roblox has also partnered with the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children to provide educational resources and support for parents and children.
