[quote=Anonymous]Just a bit of advice from a parent with slightly older kids - this is why you don't take your kid's phone away when they are actually out in public and may need to call you. The Best Rules for Kids and Mobile Phones Are: - If phone is abused (too much texting or playing games or using at the wrong times) have kid "dock it" when s/he gets home every day and only get it back when s/he leaves the house. -Don't take away the mobile phone for non-phone related crimes/offenses. Punishment should be related to behavior/offense anyway, its a much more effective strategy to curb bad behavior. -Kid has to have phone with him/her at all times when away from home and are expected to keep it properly charged and to use it to communicate whereabouts with parents -Phone has a "find me" feature so parent can easily see where the phone (and therefore the kid) is.
