Stop paying for things 
No she dies not need the phone for safety she can have a phone without paces to TikTok

This is your fault why is she shopping?

Traveling WTH ? No [/quote]

NP here.

I don’t agree with you. My kids need their phones for safety.  I mean, if there’s a shooting or a fire at school then I need to immediately know about it so I can come get them.

It really is a safety need for kids to have their phones.[/quote]

Op here. Exactly. It also allows me to track her and know where she’s at or if she’s on a bus to know how long it will take her to get home [/quote]

Omg.  If there is a shooting or a fire at school, you aren’t going to “immediately come get them.” Kids don’t need phones for safety at school. That is a myth born out of anxiety that has hindered education greatly.  [/quote]

NP. So if there’s a shooting at your kid’s school you wouldn’t even attempt to immediately go get them?

Your kid texting you that there is a shooting or fire, or whatever is not going to make them any safer.  The police will be there before you and the space will need to be secured. You can’t just “go get them.” Sure, show up and wait, but you would be notified to come do this without or without your kid having a phone. [/quote]
