[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our 5th grade DD does not have a phone, and just a few people I know have given their kids phones. The great majority of her group does not have one and is also not in a rush to get one. All I hear about once they get a phone is the Group Chats. Based on what parents tell me and the one extreme case of bullying that came out of that with a friend's then 6th grader, I'm in no rush at all. [/quote] Most of these no phone parents have kids with tablets. They can do the group chats on the tablets just as easily. And, as a parent, you heavily monitor the phone. You can have their texts, photos and more to your phone. You don't give them the password to download. Easy restrictions. My 4th grader is doing group chat on a video game with his classmates. They all share their user name and send each other messages. Don't think it isn't happening younger.[/quote]
