Wut? If they’re using the internet they should be aware of that stuff. That’s what ‘just be kids’ means these days. Just being a kid isn’t a static state of being.

It's no longer safe for children to be unsupervised on the internet.

It’s perfectly safe for them to be unsupervised on the internet for stretches of time.

The solution is to give them a taste of better built (specifically competetive) games and they will never like roblox.

Agree 100% with the sibling responses here. This almost never works in my experience. Kids want to play what their friends are playing - I remember feeling this way a long time ago too.

Maybe you are right and it depends on "friends". Me and my 3 other siblings have alwya liked similar gamnes (We are 7 siblings). Being the eldest I might have played a role thats why I thought that one could influence their children's gaming preference.
