[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread makes me more depressed than most on DCUM. The vitriol is amazing- someone asks your child to put her phone somewhere and you are all freaking out. No wonder we’re f$caked as a nation. Srsly bummed out by you people who would be offended by this. [/quote]

I am shocked how many parents are as addicted to cell phones and doesn't see the issue with kids going back to parallel play [/quote]

Parallel play?!  We are talking about tweens and teens.

I think the issue here is that people are talking about different things.  Huge difference between a basket at the door for a sleepover of a few 12 year old girls and a basement party with older co ed teens.  I definitely want my kid having her phone on her if we are talking about the latter.  If the former, just let us know in advance so I can ask my tween to check the phone from time to time in case I have tried to reach her.  [/quote]

DP.  That PP was spot on about parallel play.  You don't see it, because you don't want to look.  Others of us do.[/quote]

I have no idea what you are trying to say.[/quote]
