[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Life is becoming more and more dependent on smart phones.

I don't know what kind of activities/friend outings your daughter participates in, but smart phones might be needed for just very basic things.

I know at my kid's high school, entrance into all games, school plays, etc. are now on an app.    Food at the concessions stands are all done by credit card or apple pay/venmo/etc.

So if your daughter was to join a sport team or performing art at her school, and they had some type of competition/event at a high school, she would need either a credit card or phone app just to buy a bottle of water and slice of pizza at the concession stand.

If one of her friends has an older sibling in the high school play and they (your daughter and friends) wanted to go watch the big sibling perform, they'd need to use a phone app just to get in.

I personally find it ridiculous, but it's how it is.   [/quote]

Really?  your HS concession stands don't take cash?!  Where are you?

I've probably been to 15+ HS over the last 6 months and haven't come across a gate/ticket counter or concession stand that is electronic only?

In fact, for one game, I didn't have cash and they were a cash only operation[/quote]

This is definitely a thing in my high school. Plays, sporting events, etc. No cash. Must buy through an app on a phone. This actually happened to me at a middle school play. Even the playbill was on an app. No paper copies![/quote]
