[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow. My son is finishing 6th grade and he sometimes asks for a phone but he just wants it to watch You Tube videos. He is not out of the loop without one. Maybe it is because he is a boy but if he wants to have friends over or sleepovers, he uses my iPad to text that kid's mom and she responds. It isn't like social things are happening and he isn't left out. He does what he wants using my phone. He has no actual need for a phone now. Maybe once he hits high school. [/quote] I have seen it change a LOT from 6th to 8th grade. 8th graders do not text a friend's mom to plan time together. [/quote] Oh well. Not everyone has the money for everything either. I don't know how people can afford new iPhones for all of Europe kids plus data plans etc. Heck, I teach in a Title One school and most of my steachers dents have better phones than I have plus data plans. I cannot afford that for myself let alone my kid. [/quote]
