Wholesome mom refuses to delete 10-year-old son's Roblox account, despite father being uncomfortable with it, they take advice from internet and dad ends up playing with him: 'My husband actually sits with him during Roblox time'

I played Roblox only a few times in my life. I was dating a guy who had a little sister 12 years younger than him. She loved that stuff, and we would play with her. But let me tell you – I really didn't get it. Maybe if I was also a 13-year-old there could be something there that interested me, but being an adult woman, I had no real interest in playing, other than bonding with my boyfriend's little sister. But despite liking the game or not, there are very real dangers to online interactions that aren't limited to Roblox. Everyone just puts a smartphone in their kid's hands these days, but when I was growing up, we were always being warned about "stranger danger."

In the story here, the protagonist is a mother who wants to let her son play his game. She feels they've taught him enough skills to decode creeps, but her husband feels differently. After some debate and advice from the internet, the dad ends up sitting next to him to play and understand as well.

It's actually quite impressive and shocking how this couple handled the problem. Getting the father directly involved is not only smart, but it's mature. It's a win win on all fronts – the son gets to still play, and the father gets to be more involved with his son.
