[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I believe you all but I just don’t get why parents are doing this! It seems so unnecessary to me![/quote] We have one because she takes the public bus to school. There aren't any pay phones anymore, so if she needs to reach me, a cell phone is the only way. Her phone has to stay in her locker during school hours. She has to give it to me in the afternoon when she's doing homework. She plugs it in downstairs when she goes to bed. She has no social media (other than texting with friends) and can't download apps without my permission (apple makes it easy to lock down phones). How will your child get to school? If you're driving her or she's taking a school bus, it probably isn't necessary. Although by 6th grade, they should be beginning to explore going places on their own.[/quote]
