[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now high school kids can’t even use their phone at lunch. Are you kidding me?? How ridiculous.[/quote] Did an insecure parent or phone dependent-student start this gripe thread? Hard to know the difference really. [/quote] No, a parent with common sense. Kids sometimes need to text their parents and vice versa for whatever reason. It’s not a crime.[/quote] What you're seeing is parents who are overprotective and overdependent on their own devices and who just don't know how to let go. These are the same people who track their children obsessively using Life360 or Find My iPhone. [/quote] +1 The parents who have a problem with this policy are likely addicted to their own phones and/or are unable to let their kids be independent young people who might have to face some uncomfortable situations if they forget to plan ahead for after school activities. These people need to land the helicopter and put down their own devices. [/quote]
