[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have no idea how much it costs, but would not buy one for my DD who is 12. The purpose of it is to track how much you move, how many calories you burn, etc., right? I simply don't want my kid to focus on numbers in relation to movement and health in that way. She's not the obsessive type, but I want her to focus on how good and strong and capable her body feels when she runs or does gymnastics or ice skating. (I don't know of any of her friends who have one.)[/quote] I completely agree. Kids don't need fitbits, they need to get out, be active, and hopefully enjoy it for the sake of it, not because they are focused on upping the steps for the day![/quote]
