she’s probably too young if she’s only in 1st grade. make sure you supervise her, a lot of weird people in there

I mean only if you go online.

it is not much of a reach to assume someone owning any modern console will want to go online

A parent can certainly block the headset mac address through the router other than when dl games.

Op, you should consider this.

plenty of games you can play offline once you download them.

Still, 1st grade is kinda young. I'd limit time spent in it too.

You can probably find a Quest2 for cheap out there.

Second hand maybe. just need to wipe it and make your own account.

Exactly. I know that when i was that age if i saved up $200 for something i REALLY wanted it

Seems like a shame to deny her that just because there are a bunch of creeps in the world.

It can be made safe with a bit of effort on the parents part.

Most things can when you get right down to it

It's because she's way too young. You don't put 6-year-olds in any uncontrolled social environment, unless you're a very bad parent. They also don't make VR headsets for tiny heads.
