[quote=Anonymous]I’ve never taken away my 17 year old’s phone and he’s had one since 6th grade. When he was in middle school all devices lived downstairs and never went into bedrooms. Parents included - it was just a family rule. We’ve also always had times that are screen free - dinner, games, sports, family outings, and annual camping trips without tech. If I found him using his phone to hurt other people or otherwise use it irresponsibly, I probably would have taken it. The one time we found out he had been stupid with his phone (posted something terribly embarrassing) it turned out to be its own lesson. I just hugged him while he cried. He hasn’t used social media much since.[/quote]
