Which is?
Resist and find other ways to do the thing... which is literally what kids do.
Do you want your kids to be on Roblox with your knowledge and occasional oversight, or without your knowledge at all, without any parental control?
I crafted wifi and tv antennae out of scraps of metal when my parents confiscated mine, but I don't think that applies here. (And yes, this was a brief golden era when terrestrial analog tv signals and wifi coexisted)
You don't see how that applies? Honestly? It's a helluva lot easier to find a way to play Roblox than it is to make antennae out of scrap metal.
Depends on who you are. It would take me a minute or less to unwind a coat hanger and/or a paperclip, scrap wire etc and rig it up.
