[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Perhaps parents shouldn't buy phones for their kids? If you/we didn't have them growing up and our parents found us just fine, perhaps parents nowadays should take the lead and not purchase smartphones for their children. Why have the schools do your parenting for you? [/quote] This sounds like a parent of small kids or whose kids are grown. Phones are likely the primary tool most of us use for everything (good and evil). It's how we all communicate, the resource for information, a watch, a calculator, a navigator, a wallet, a camera, a ruler, etc. As kids grow older, they will need phones like adults, and they need to learn to use them responsibly. Like learning to drive a car, kids need to learn with clear guidelines and supervision.[/quote]
