[quote=Anonymous]My DD has had an iPod Touch since she was 9 (she's 11.5 now - a rising sixth grader) and she tries to bring it everywhere. This morning for example, she ran back into her room and grabbed it, but didn't grab the tissues she needed and I pointed out to her that her priority was a "want" rather than a "need." I tell her on every outting "Either you put it away and interact with the people around you, or I'll take it away," because she constantly wants "to just take a picture..." and "just text Kaia..." I find myself saying no a lot. I see this getting better as she gains maturity and could see handing down an old iPhone when I upgrade.[/quote]
