[quote=Anonymous]We gave our older kids iphones in 6th grade. Kids don't need a smartphone, but they should have something that they can use to call you and something that they can text with. A handful of DD's 7th grader friends do not have phones and they are left out of a lot of iphone group chats and google hangout chats. None of them are on FB or instagram, so these group chats and texts are the way they can communicate as a group. If they didn't have them, they'd be social outcasts. DS is a bit of an introvert and has trouble making friends. He would have zero friends if he couldn't keep in touch with them by iphone.[/quote]
