Tips for Youth: Safety and Well-Being Online
Discover resources and tips created by our Teen Council and professionals, specifically for teens online.
Youth Guide to Community Standards
To make it easy for you to understand and uphold our community standards, we simplified them and added helpful imagery. Learn, share, and maintain a respectful, positive experience on Roblox.
Roblox Teen Council
Our Teen Council for Civility & Digital Well-Being was created to help inform our tools, experiences, and educational materials for our community.
To date, council members helped inform over 12 products, our Community Standards, the youth guide to these standards, educational materials, PSAs, mental health tips, and more.
What our young people are saying
Here’s what members of our Teen Council shared with us to help create a better experience for their peers on Roblox.
Struggling isn't a weakness.
If you’re struggling, don’t feel ashamed. Take a break, and log off. Talk to someone, like a counselor or your parents. Speaking up is a strength!
Talk to yourself like you would to someone you love.
If you’re feeling down, embarrassed, or frustrated with yourself, take a deep breath. Ask yourself what you would say to someone you love who was feeling the same things. Be kind to yourself.
Don't give toxic people the reaction they're looking for.
Utilize the block and report features, and focus on communities that help make gaming an overall positive experience.
You have the power to shape your experience.
Set boundaries, report harmful behavior, and spend time with communities that treat you and others with respect.
Ignore requests to connect somewhere else
If someone is asking you to leave Roblox to chat on your social media or a messaging app, ask yourself why they’re asking. Why don’t they want to keep chatting on Roblox? Remember, our chat has protections for users, so it’s safer to keep conversations where anything inappropriate or unsafe can be flagged.
Set screen time limits before playing and pay attention to how gaming affects your mood.
If you're feeling overwhelmed, step offline and take a break.
Always make sure you are telling a trusted adult or guardian any problems you're facing online.
They're there to support you!
