Most kids aren't discerning about those kinds of things.

That's why I slam that shit home all the time. Robux are a scam. YouTubers are just selling to you. If it has ads it's not worth watching. Just repeat that every day to the kids and they're good to go.

The message they will take away is "the things my parents approve of" and "the things that are really cool and fun" are disjoint categories. IDK, I'm not a parent, I don't want to deal with that. Just thinking about my own childhood here, and the kids of people I know.
