DD is 10 and in 5th, but at our school she actually moved into middle school this year and is one of the only kids in her class without a phone. I wanted to wait a lot longer to get her one, but we have a number of extenuating circumstances (her dance schedule, the fact that she's being left off group texts, an upcoming multi-night sleepaway class field trip) that are starting to tip me over to getting her phone. It seems like a lot of people have Gabb phones, but Pinwheel seems to offer more hands-on parental options. Does anyone have anything pro or con for either?
