Wait until you find out about the child labour stuff.
There may not be sweatshops in the developed world, but you can bet your ass a lot of roblox "dev studios" are really just one or two adults, exploiting a bunch of kids for free labour via discord.
Oh, and then there's the fully integrated speculative market for assets and cosmetics, where ten-year-olds gain and lose thousands of real dollars in robux.
The ecosystem around Roblox is a complete shitshow that no sane parent should allow a kid anywhere near.
