[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP with a just-turned-13 YO who does not yet have a phone. Thank you for these comments, and OP, I've been wondering the same thing. DC claims s/he "needs" a phone because kids make their own plans now and s/ne would be "mortified" if I check with a mother to confirm. Excuse me? So, these kids are "making plans" to get together without confirming with an adult? Do you just assume that I'm available at any time to cart you all over town to meet up with friends? Do you just assume that it's OK if 4 friends plan to sleep over tonight, without asking first? I get that they have to gradually have some independence in this area, but as long as I'm responsible for transportation, or feeding groups of people, or supervising gatherings, there is no way that "plans" can be made without adult consent.[/quote] Of course! I don't know that PPs were saying any of that? [/quote]
