[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of my middle schoolers in the Title 1 school where I teach have phones. 3/4 of their phones are better than mine! My DD is in 6th grade and doesn't have a phone. I let her play games on mine but that's it. I don't have the money to pay for a plan for her. Ironic huh?[/quote] Phones are cheaper than computers, vacations, enrichment activities, after care, etc. So in a way, it does make some sense. [/quote] IPhones are not cheap. Many of these students have the latest iPhone. The phone plus the texting and data plans are not something I can afford to give my child. If I can't afford it as a teacher, how can parents who make less than $25K per year afford this?[/quote]
