    After a year of evil legislation driven by “protect the children”, I will admit: Yes, this is probably a decent action to protect the children.

    That said, in some ways feels like any online center that attracts children can garner these problems. I’m a little curious; for any parents in the discussion, where should kids spend time online? Especially if they want to have communication with the kids they know, on days when they can’t visit in person.

        If you’ve ever been to a family party, there’s often a kids’ area, but they’re not just “chatting” about recent news, or new jobs, or medical problems. That’s pretty boring for a kid, and they don’t have the life experience to drive a conversation. Sharing memes is something, but it doesn’t prompt a lot of back and forth to learn about anyone.They’re usually playing, having some structured activity to generate their excitement and drama from.

        It makes sense for kids to group up around a social game online. The problem is, what such space can exist that isn’t going to be relentlessly targeted by pedophiles.

      It has one of the most user-friendly 3d modelling studios out there, allowing for real-time manipulation of the environment and script editing. Without taking up hundreds of gigabytes of storage to do so.

      It sucks that the actual community fostered by the company is awful. Because it’s an incredible tool otherwise.

        Telling my young boy 7 or 8 years ago that hes not allowed to play the Adopt-Me Pet Roleplay game, but not really having age-appropriate language to explain it to a 5 year old.

    Dude fuck this platform! It’s insanely addicting and they’re full of shit to say it’s not designed that way! My own kids have issues with this and I have noticed my daughter gets upset if she can’t play or her play gets interrupted. It’s absolutely like an addict, feigning. My wife is starting to agree it’s not healthy nor safe like they claim!
