Consumer Reports highlights the importance of parental control settings for online games to ensure children's safety and prevent unauthorized purchases. A case involving Lynne Ramsbottom illustrates the risks when her grandson spent $2,000 on Roblox using her credit card. Many children struggle to understand that in-game purchases involve real money. To mitigate these risks, Consumer Reports advises parents to activate parental controls that limit spending and manage online activities. Features like Apple’s Family Sharing and Google’s Family Link can help, and setting these controls takes only a few minutes, promoting safer online experiences for kids.
