[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I let my 5th grader do this starting this year. He walks home, we live a block away, and I'm home about 90 minutes later. No issues. He texts me when he gets home.[/quote] Why does your son have a phone? He is in 5th grade. Why can't he pick up the landline and call to say he is home - just like the millions of other kids back in the 80's, 90's, 00's and now that don't have cell phones as kids. [/quote] Why shouldn't he have an iphone? Will it bring destruction and ruin? What is so virtuous about landlines? Please do share, because we have not had one of those ancient things for years now.[/quote] Not the PP but a 5th grade with a smart phone or an itouch looks at porn, social media, chatting, texting, mindless games, inappropriate you-tube videos, etc.... but yes let's not let him stay home alone. That is so "dangerous" :roll: [/quote] Exactly how old are you? You don't know how to put controls on an iPhone? Yikes granny! I see now why phones make you terrified. No need for the hysterics Here's a hint...you can select phone numbers that they can call only and select websites they can only go to, block or allow certain apps, and you can even block data. Next?
