The National Crisis Facing American Children
Roblox has become enormously popular among American children, from coast to coast and everywhere in between. With over 200 million users worldwide, millions of children across the United States log onto Roblox daily, from major metropolitan areas to small rural communities. However, this popularity has come with a dangerous cost – children across our nation are being targeted by sexual predators who exploit Roblox’s inadequate safety systems to abuse and exploit minors.
Families throughout America have reported disturbing incidents where their children were contacted by strangers, exposed to sexual content, or even lured into dangerous situations through Roblox’s platform. These incidents span every state and represent a systematic failure by Roblox Corporation to protect the children who use their platform.
How Roblox Endangers Children Nationwide
Inadequate Safety Monitoring: Despite serving millions of children across America, Roblox relies heavily on automated systems that consistently fail to detect predatory behavior and sexual content targeting young users.
Weak User Verification: Adults can easily create accounts and pose as children, gaining access to vulnerable minors without proper identity verification or parental oversight, putting children at risk nationwide.
Private Communication Features: Roblox’s messaging systems allow predators to contact children directly, often without parental knowledge or supervision, creating dangerous situations for children across the country.
Insufficient Response to Reports: When parents nationwide report concerning behavior or dangerous situations, Roblox often fails to take swift, effective action to protect children from ongoing threats.
Ensuring Your Child's Immediate Safety and Support
If you suspect your child has been victimized through Roblox or any other gaming platform, taking immediate, appropriate action is crucial for their safety and for protecting your legal rights.
Immediately ensure your child is in a safe environment and remove them from any ongoing dangerous online situations or communications.
Reassure your child that they are not in trouble, that you love and support them, and that you are there to protect them from any further harm.
Contact qualified mental health professionals who specialize in treating child sexual abuse survivors to begin the healing process as soon as possible.
Create a safe space for your child to share their experiences without fear of punishment or judgment, while being sensitive to their emotional state.
Keep detailed written records of what you discovered, when you discovered it, your child’s statements, and any related incidents or concerns.
Document the sequence of events, including when the abuse or inappropriate contact began, how it escalated, and when it was discovered.
Frequently Asked Questions for American Families
Warning signs include secretive online behavior, mood changes, sleep disturbances, academic decline, inappropriate sexual knowledge, or behavioral regression. Trust your parental instincts – if something seems wrong, investigate further while ensuring your child feels safe and supported.

We take extraordinary measures to protect family privacy and confidentiality, including seeking protective orders for sensitive information, pursuing confidential settlement agreements when possible, and limiting public disclosure of personal details.

Many states recognize that child sexual abuse survivors often need time to understand, process, and report their victimization. Numerous states have extended time limits for childhood sexual abuse cases, and the time limit often begins when the abuse is discovered rather than when it occurred. Even if significant time has passed, you may still have valid legal options that should be evaluated by experienced attorneys.
