[quote=Anonymous]Before 6th grade I had a flip phone I would give my daughter on day's she would take the bus home with a friend, or when she would sleep over a friend's house so she could call or text me at any time. Beginning 6th grade which is middle school where I'm at, I got her a phone. We don't have a house phone and she is home alone after school for a couple of hours. Also - she is the only one at her bus stop in the morning and afternoon - I felt better her having a phone to call me in case anything weird happens while shes standing there alone. She is now in 8th grade and still has the same phone and in good condition. She doesn't have the latest phone but it still works well. With her phone I've limited her at times her usage like taking away all apps/internet and not giving her the option to download any when she is grounded. I've blocked her from texting or calling anyone other than her parents. I've also set the screen time to go off from 9pm to 6am. [/quote]
