[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't believe any of you that are saying kids don't need phones until 9th have kids over the age of 4.[/quote] My child is in 9th and got his phone for his birthday in September. He and 2 other boys were the last hold outs in their circles, but it's possible. That said, he has a 10pm bedtime, gets 8.5 hours of sleep. I think 9 is absurd for 8th grade. I do think it's so strange that parents are like "oh, the science says kids need so much sleep, we have to do that" and they just ignore the science that says phones/screens are absolutely terrible for kids. and adults, for that matter. I shouldn't be surprised, going to bed early = "me time" for mommy and daddy. Some parents are so selfish.[/quote]
