[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I got a LG B470 flip phone (around $25) for my now 12 year old a while back. I put it on my AT&T plan, I think it was $10 per month. I have recently put together a list of requirements that he must do for 60 days in order to get a smart phone (not lose the phone, answer texts from parents, obey electronics rules at school and and home, etc.). He has had the 60 days restart several times (lost the phone twice, got in trouble at school for misuse of chrome book, messed with electronic time limits). It has been a good lesson. I'm hoping that it will get him to be more responsible before he is trusted with a smart phone. He does seem to be the last 12 year old on earth without a smart phone.[/quote] This is similar to what we did with DS. He has a contract and he understands that having a smart phone is a privilege. He lost his a number of times, but I figured it's a good life lesson. [/quote]
