[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What if they create accounts at school using their friends cell phones and won't let you follow them?[/quote] That's why it is important to address communication and trust issues from the time your kids are very young. You can't go back and start over when you find out your kid is lying to you at age 16. When we address these issues, we try to distill every incident down to this basic tenet of trust. This isn't about phones or social media; this is about lying. Every time a kid betrays that, they take a couple of steps back. If you lie, I can't trust you. If I can't trust you, you can't have the car, you can't go to someone's house that we don't know, you can't be unsupervised at home, etc. If we CAN trust you, you'll have more liberties, more freedom, etc., because we have more confidence that you are making good decisions.
