Episode description

Gayle had never even heard of Roblox when her then eight year old son asked if he could join the online platform, where millions of games would be at his fingertips. After saying no a few times, she took the slightly unconventional move, on her son's invitation, of creating her own account and playing with him. Along with her gamer husband, they allowed their son to explore the online world from a young age with strict supervision, but new studies show that even when you think you're across your kids online activity, things aren't always as they appear. You'll hear from a parent and two experts perspective on how to keep your kids safe on Roblox and other online platforms. 

Plus is it ethical to chuck a sickie? And the new research showing that men are quicker to say "I love you" than women on Life Matters on ABC Radio National.
