[quote=Anonymous]OP this was my idea too in 6th grade. My kid refused to use the flip phone. Said it was so embarrassing he would never ever get it out in front of anyone. Said he would get made fun of by other kids. It was buried deep in his bag and maybe once or twice he was desperate to reach us for his own reasons and he would hide in a bathroom or go somewhere alone and call. It was useless to reach him. And no my kid was generally not difficult or a jerk or entitled. The reaction surprised me at the time. We did a very stripped down phone. You can disable it during the school day other than messaging you during the school day.[/quote]
