[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lot of folks in here saying “my kid will just keep it in their bag because they use it correctly” and they gonna be in for a world of shock when they’re called into to get their kids phone in week 2 because it was out during the day.

Go ahead and resist, you’ll see soon enough your kid, who is not like the others, is indeed like the others.

Just setting yourselves up for frustrating trips to the school during the day to meet with admin, fruitless arguments, and the “shocking” realization that teenagers lie.

PS. Teachers need their phones because every aspect of the counties online infrastructure is now tethered to two factor authentication. I can’t even go to another room without my phone because very platforms randomly require authentication via phone authenticator. [/quote]

I truly believe my kid has kept her phone in her backpack all day except at the end of the year when no one is teaching anyway.

I am also a teacher and understand most kids don’t do this.

If my kid ISN”T doing that but tell me she is, I want every consequence the school has to rain down upon her.  There will also be some at home.

Last year, at our away for the day school, we signed a contract that the phone would be confiscated if out and we would have to go get it.  I don’t have a problem with that at all, BUT since I was never called to the office last year, I would assume the teachers think my kid did actually keep the phone in her backpack.

Should I not trust the staff at the school?[/quote]
