[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids got a cell phone once they started going places without a parent. So end of 4th grade or somewhere in 5th, depending on maturity and interest. [/quote] Hm. OP here. My kid has been going places without a parent for three years. He walks a mile to school on his own. He’s also extremely mature. I haven’t seen a need for a phone. I mostly don’t want it to be a time such that takes him away from doing creative stuff, reading or doing homework. But I am concerned about socially and don’t want him to be left out. I’m a little confused about the PP who said that the class all have a group chat. This is middle school. My kid has nine classes.[/quote] I am that PP. it is advisory.[/quote]
