There are two flaws in this recommendation:
Assumption that time spent playing Roblox at his age is a waste. (None of us know if this is true)
And that there should be conditions on your support and love.

Unconditional support doesn't mean protecting your son from failure or consequences in life. It just means you always offer an empathetic ear to help them process their struggles. It may even mean helping the face hard truths, so long as it's being done from a place of love and not disappointment.
I really do get the sense you know this, I'm saying it mostly because others seem to have misunderstood what I meant.
Everything I ever wanted as a teenager was always on a condition I would get good grades. Not 8 out of 10 but perfect 10's. Even then it was never met with any compliments or recognition. It was my job and I was expected to just do it.
I'll be honest here, I don't speak with my mom anymore and barely with my father. If this isn't the relationship you want to have with your kids in the future, please evaluate the impact your demands and expectations could have on them today.
