[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I got her a cell phone when she started taking the train to school by herself towards the end of fourth grade. That was a flip phone. Had it through fifth grade. Summer before 7th grade, she was given a used iPhone from Grandma that broke a couple months later. Late December, Grandma gave her an iPhone 6. DD will be 13 this month. We live in SF, I'm a single parent, and DD is taking trains and buses all over on her own. I feel better that she has a phone. When she didn't have one, I got so many calls from random numbers from her borrowing people's phones. [/quote] Agree with that -- especially since she might also need a map app and the like. Lots of useful tools on a phone for kid alone, not to mention your ability to track her location (not fool proof, but it helps).[/quote]
