[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, what about parents who take their kids on expensive vacations?  Do you want them to stop too?  Expensive clothes?  There will always be people who have more.  Start dealing with it.[/quote]

I think you are completely missing the point, PP.  This isn't about the money.  Plenty of parents, myself included, could easily afford smart phones for our toddlers if we wanted.  It's about common sense and what's appropriate for children.   No kid in elementary school needs to carry around free rein to the internet, texting, etc.   Unless, of course, you like the idea of technology sucking up most of the free time in their childhood years as well as their teens.  It also gives them a jump start on all those cute little websites like ask.fm, where little girls can talk about blow jobs and the size of guy's dicks, field questions about their boobs and worse, while learning to bully as good as they get.  All without a parent nearby to monitor them.  It's called too much too soon.

If communication with your child is what's important to you, a simple phone will do. [/quote]
