[quote=Anonymous]My 12 yr old 7th grader doesn't have one and does just fine socially. If she wants to hang out with a friend, I text their parent. I have to drive her anyway, so parents are still needed to coordinate this. She sees friends at school and sports. Once home, she is very busy with homework and studying (just getting into the swing of new middle school rigor). She doesn't need the distraction of a phone right now. Our plan is 9th grade. That will give her a good couple years of taking truly hard classes in middle school, while doing sports, and developing good organization and study habits. [/quote]
