[quote=Anonymous]We have a kid in MS where they will have the pouches. Overall I support the policy and idea of kids not being glues to their phones at school. I hope it leads to kid interacting with one another more.

My only concern is the unlocking of the pouches. Out school will have what seems like a very small number of unlocking stations for 1500 kids. I trust they will figure it out. We did purchase a strong fishing magnet to keep at home in case our kid forgets to inlock it.

The only parents I know who are against it or plan on teaching their kids that rules don't apply to them by giving them a dummy phone to lock away are the ones who  have very lax parenting overall, for example,  allow kids to stay up all night on their phones with no restrictions. Then there are the high anxiety one. My one friend is so high anxiety she need to check in with her kids multiple times a day and had played out every possible doomsday scenario where he kid will need a phone accessible 24-7.[/quote]
