[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I'm one who only takes DD's phone at home for punishment...dd was in elem and we lived in CT when Sandy Hook happened (got her a phone after that) and now in HS, we live in FL. I want her to have a phone outside our house.[/quote] The reason I got my first cell phone was because of Columbine. I was a Junior in high school and they weren’t really a thing then. After Columbine, school was 100% different. That was the first time I remember teachers having discussions with us about what to do if a shooting happened. I still remember the way my English teacher’s voice cracked when she told us where she hid her purse in her desk in case we needed to find her cellphone or car keys to make a run for it if she was shot. “I drive a huge old conversion van. You all know the one. It’s that maroon monstrosity in the lot outside these doors to our left. Just grab my keys and pile in and drive. You’ll all fit! Just floor it!” [/quote]
