If I have to explain further, some children are limited in their choices by religion or family-wise. Americans are mostly Catholic and/or Christian, not Islamic or Hindu. Since ROBLOX is an online game, anyone from around the world can play it. Some parents want to try to limit what their child is doing, and dating is one example.

It can't be stopped until our children are somehow limited in choice where online dating actually becomes irrelevant, meaning there would be other options. Some of the more limitless children want love-like relationships regardless of introversion or extroversion. The introverts are not social enough to find love through school or anywhere locally, so they resort to the internet, which is basically the same thing as an extroverted relationship, except it doesn't involve any human contact.

But I would not consider the parent's ignorance of this situation as neglect. Everyone is different, so in that aspect, some parents think it's good, some think it's bad, and some don't even care what their child does. But then comes the problem of how people see THAT. Some people think those parents are neglectful, some think those parents are not, and it's just a whole web of different opinions; there's no definitive view on it. Perspective-wise, I think the decision to limit freer children is hopeless. Those children can technically do what they want. I mean, you saw Jared, a child under the age of 18, set up a ROBLOX social network for banned users AND online daters alike. There's no doubt that these children are going to find ways to prevent others from limiting them, much like piracy and the media companies and software developers.

If a free child can do what a limited child can't, the free child will try to make the limited child just as free as them. It's more of an opportunity to them. You can compare it like a simple glitch that can easily be replicated on several copies of the program. If one person knows how to get it, the other will get it too.
