[quote=Anonymous]I have a daughter in middle school and understand OP's concern. I think kids at this age need extra guidance from parents. They are too young to be expected to make healthy choices on their own when they have a "box of candy" open to them. I strictly control the amount of time my kid can spend on her phone, and she's not allowed any social media apps. I keep her busy with activities after school, so she doesn't have time for drama. When I talk to other moms at her activities they have the same idea. Kids tend to say no to something new, but often once they get into it they'll find they enjoy it. It doesn't have to be something academic or school-related.[/quote]
