[quote=Anonymous]OP, we had the same thing happen at my DD’s recent sleepover, when she turned 12. Seven girls total, including her. DH told them to get off their phones twice, once while they were singing Happy Birthday to DD and another when they were outside, after expressing interest in roasting marshmallows over our Solo Stove. They did, but DD has complained multiple times about them being on their phones constantly in other scenarios. She and one other girl are the only two of the group who don’t have phones yet. They got phones too young and the games and videos they watch are literally designed to be engaging, verging on addictive. It only reinforced our resolve not to get her a phone until at least seventh grade. She does have an AppleWatch, which she uses to text and keep in touch with her friends, and that’s all she needs now. [/quote]
