You are right indeed...I will not allow my daughter in chat rooms, she thinks that terrible and unfair but as a parent my job isn’t to always be fair...but, it is always to keep her safe.
I generally don’t have a problem with video games and the such...I feel that those are today’s board games of yesterday, so I’m not upset with that, some games are very violent and should only be played for age appropriate kids...no matter how fun they are. At 33 I even enjoy playing some of them….. It’s just like TV, a show might be great but depending on the age of the child a parent has to use discretion
