[quote=Anonymous]In most cases, I don't really get the response that the kids need the phone so the parents can reach them. My 5th grader is always somewhere where an adult is present. He can always borrow a phone from an adult and has on a couple of occasions. If I'm going to be late to a soccer practice, I can always call the coach or my son can call me on the borrowed phone if I don't show up on time. I've told my son that I have confidence in him and that he doesn't have to be tethered to me by a phone. He seems to be buying that argument for now.[/quote]
