[quote=Anonymous]You are limiting him socially and making it harder for him to fit in. My ds has a really good friend (also middle school) who doesn't have a phone, but she is at a different school and the situation is just very different socially than you describe for your ds. I do believe in scaffolding them (and my ds has ADHD as well). No social media apps like instagram or snapchat and we can read all his texts. You have to weigh the pros and cons for your son specifically. Middle school can be a particularly brutal time socially so if he is already struggling there, then you really should factor that in. Yes, it is work to stay on top of it. Absolutely. [/quote]
