[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have to disagree with the previous posters. I got my DD a phone at age 12. By that age, she was gaining more independence. Giving her the phone to text her friends allowed her to begin making plans with her friends herself, tracking her own calendar with practices, tutoring sessions and get-togethers, and allowed her to text me to pick her up when necessary. I think that a phone is necessary for a teenager to function in modern-day society.[/quote] I agree with all of this. It seems cruel to keep such a vital piece of communication away from a teenager. Are you still setting up "playdates" for her? At this point it is forbidden fruit and you may win the battle, but you are losing the war. Give her a damn phone. [/quote]
