[quote=Anonymous]When I was 13/14 I spent a lot of time giggling on our landline with my best friends and listening to music on a boom box in my bedroom. A phone serves both those purposes for my kid. We don't have physical media for music anymore, it's all streaming. We don't have landlines. She texts and actually has phone calls with her friends. She listens to music via her phone. I do think it's mean to cut them off from that. (If they have a tablet or watch that works for that, then sure.) My kid did get a smart phone--because she inherited one of our old iPhones. Which also makes it very easy to monitor and control because it's all linked to our accounts and on the same platform. It basically becomes a brick at 7pm--she can text but that's about it. She can't add any apps without permission and when she first got it, we didn't even allow her to have a browser to avoid her accessing social media that way. [/quote]
