[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't have an issue with them. Mine's in 5th. We will get one for middle school. The phones are not the issue, but how you use them. You don't have to put apps or the internet on there. We have a gizmo now.[/quote] Same. DS got my old iPhone when he was in 5th with everything restricted except actual phone calls and texting. There were no issues and I had more peace of mind tracking him with find my iPhone when he was out. I physically took the phone whenever he wasn’t out and moderating wasn’t a problem. He didn’t take it to school. Years later he was allowed to have some apps one at a time but no internet. When his friends were older and got phones they tended to go more crazy, texting hundreds of messages because they could. By then he had it on him more and would often silence conversations because he didn’t want to be bothered. [/quote]
