[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP. Been there. My son's father got him a phone with a data plan when he was too young, IMO. I heard the exact same arguments. He was up way too late and not doing a great job of self regulating. So, I got him an alarm clock. I told him we were changing the rules, at least for a while, and cited the above reasons. My kid is the kind of kid who needs a why behind the what, and he was old enough to hear something besides "because I said so." I've also explained ad nauseum about how a brain needs to unplug for a while before sleeping. The phone now charges in the living room at night. Good luck.[/quote]
