[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I actually do think it matters what the other parents are doing. If we (parents) could all agree to age gate things like cell phones and social media (which I think is the bigger worry in regards to a smart phone), all of our children would be better off. I think 8th grade is reasonable for a phone that is not connected to the internet. But no social media until at least 16 - I hope by the time my kids are that age it is the law![/quote] This is the real world. I hate social media but I am a realist. Don’t you remember being 16? Sex, drugs and RnR everywhere yet most of us grew up to be responsible members of our communities. Forbidding social media until 16 will never work en masse and will not protect kids from exploitation at an older age.[/quote]
