[quote=Anonymous]You should not have promised this if you weren't prepared to follow through. It sounds like you didn't think they could actually do it, and is tht the message you want to send by backing out now? If I were you, I would give them the phones, with the contingencies that they will lose the privilege if their grades drop, or if you feel that they have been staying up too late and its affecting their attitude or routine. I think parents on here forget that their job is to raise productive adults. The transition to independence should be gradual, not abrupt on their 18th birthday. Giving them this freedom won't kill them, and you can take it back if they are irresponsible with it. Give them a chance to show you they can do it, just like they did with their grades. [/quote]
