[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really don’t think we adults understand the level to which these phones have become central to teens’ lives. It’s truly scary and I think your DD’s uncharacteristic outburst is witness to it. Absolutely these streaks and ongoing group chats have taken on far too much importance. They simply cant imagine being out of the proverbial loop for more time than necessary and certainly they tie their social status to the messaging they do. I think you need to let her calm down, stick to your guns about the rule and consequence, acknowledge that you understand her feelings but [b]remind her that her reaction to being denied her phone shows you how much she uses it and underscores why you have to have rules about its use[/b].[/quote] Omg, if you have teens I’d watch my back - you are one dense witch![/quote]
