[quote=Anonymous]Sometime in middle school seems most common. We got DD a smartphone the summer before 6th grade, for reasons that were almost entirely due to parental convenience. She most likely didn't need it; I think access to a phone (not necessarily a smartphone) of her own might have been more critical socially by 7th grade when it seems that kids made plans directly with each other and not really through parents. We tied the privilege of having the smartphone to grades and behavior, and if either wasn't meeting certain standards the phone was among the first things to go.[/quote]
