She said kids need to be bored but also her kid has no one to play with. So, kid is probably bored. Isn't this what OP wanted?[/quote]

No, ops can probably can entertain themselves and handle boredom, but it's always better and more fun for kids to have other kids around. [/quote]

Great things happen when bored teenagers get together. [/quote]

Once again, not all teenagers do thos things. They ate capable of just being kids and have fun. I'm sorry for kids who aren't.[/quote]

Are you sorry for the ones sitting at home bored who start chatting with strangers on Discord?  https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/1192713.page[/quote]

Sitting around chatting with strangers on discord I'd not a great idea or something that I'd allow.[/quote]

How about Roblox?  The linked article describes how perpetrators have groomed kids as young as 8 years old whom they met in Roblox chatrooms.  https://wapo.st/4cb7bi9[/quote]

These online games make me nervous. So far my kids haven't asked and don't have an interest. Not sure how I'd handle if they did.[/quote]

Now imagine your kid is in middle school enjoying free time at the playground with other kids whose phones have full access to discord or snap or Roblox. Now your permission is not needed because it’s not your phone.[/quote]

MS is too old for playgrounds.  [/quote]

Playgrounds are ok for middle school if they have a basketball court, exercise equipment, fields.  We aren’t talking about the slides.  [/quote]

Not all kids like basketball or fields.  Dull.  Why not let them do what they enjoy?[/quote]

If this a park or playground with space, then can play any sport or game that they wish.[/quote]

Thanks for your permission  :roll: [/quote]

Permission? I wasn't giving permission for anything. Young teens can enjoy parks/playgrounds. That's what I was getting at.[/quote]

Sure. Because everyone lives in an area with safe and accessible parks for teens to play in.[/quote]
