[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids without a phone often get left out. Don’t do that to your child. We have a lot of rules around when the phone can be used but not having one makes it so much harder socially.[/quote]

Dumb question but could they not just load whichever apps onto an iPad and use that to communicate?  My kids aren't teens yet so just curious.  [/quote]

Not when they are out.  They go places without parents by middle school.  Out to eat, mall, walks, bikes etc.  they meet up with friends.  [/quote]

Some do. Some don’t.[/quote]

And then they turn into the high schooler (see other post) who has no one to sit with at lunch. 
Not saying that is what happened but there are posts on here every other day about kids who struggle socially.  Geez people, I wonder why---you (the parent) created the pariah when you took the hardline on something (phones)
that you could allow but control.  [/quote]

This is absolutely stupid.  I can believe you were peer pressured into giving your kid a phone.   [/quote]
