[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only kids I know who had phones that early had divorced parents.[/quote] +1 Which I sorta get but then it’s annoying because they have free range access to the internet and my kid has told me he’s seen YouTube videos and things he isn’t supposed to watch on his friend’s phone. I try to relax on it because I know I can’t fully control what my kids see outside the home, so I try to keep a running dialogue with them about the realities of the internet and how anyone can post anything. I’d rather he come tell me what he saw than worry I’m going to flip out over it. That said I don’t understand why divorced parents can’t just get their kid a dumb phone? There are old school cells that just have call and texting abilities. My kid just finally got a gizmo watch in 5th. That seems sufficient for now.[/quote]
