We have some time limits on games specifically but it really is mostly Roblox (an hour a day). What stops me from limiting this further is social interaction, ironically. A lot of the current elementary school class meets up there in lieu of a playground, and removing that would limit the kid's social life.

They like to run a voice chat in the background while they play, so it's not just a silent in-game chat interaction.

If removing this I don't know how we would replace the social aspect. Would probably need to find an in-person after-school program which would have its own problems.

This is such sad commentary on modern life. Why is this acceptable at all?
