[quote=Anonymous]My kid had a friend in high school with no phone, no watch, nothing. No way to communicate. This kid's parents would call my child to communicate with their kid!! It was bizarro world. To arrange pick ups, tell the kid something, etc. I heard him answer the phone one day...hello Mr. So and So, oh sure and so I asked him about it. Oh yeah, Mr. So and So calls me because Friend isn't allowed to have a phone. Like WTAF. Sir, stop calling my child. Figure out a way to communicate with your own kid. The world has moved on. There aren't pay phones anymore. I think a watch is fine for a good while but once the kid is farther flung, the watch batteries do die. Get the kid a phone and put limits on it, which is very doable.[/quote]
