[quote=Anonymous]Our rules are much like the PPs. Until 6th grade, all computing is done on family computers in our library. In addition, we limit access, especially on school days. Grade 6, kids get an iphone but not in their room at night (and we have full access). Grade 9, child gets a laptop and can use it in their bedroom as long as grades are good and we are not seeing illegal or unethical behavior. With our first DC we tried taking the computer away every night but he actually does better in schol, and is more self-disciplined, when he has full access. Counterintuitive, but he was ready for some independence.[/quote]
