“My 10-year-old was spending five to six hours a day and became withdrawn, irritable, and even aggressive when we tried to limit
screen time. We didn't realize how serious the impact was until his grades dropped and he started having serious anxiety attacks.”
- Parent from New Jersey
“Addictive, destructive video games made it incredibly easy for my child to spend hundreds of dollars without us noticing. There were no clear spending limits, and it felt like we were constantly trying to undo the damage.”
- Father from California

Q: How much compensation could I receive?
A: Payouts vary depending on the severity of the harm and supporting documentation. Compensation may include medical or therapy costs, reimbursement for Robux purchases, academic support, and damages for emotional distress or suffering.
