[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 6th grader has an inexpensive Samsung Galaxy (forget what model). She walks home from school (could bus but prefers to walk) and I like her being able to call in case of an emergency since it is about 2 miles. She is pretty self-regulating with use, I think because we model that at home. She has been known to watch Parks and Rec on her phone after HW is done before swim practice. The horror. It's pretty apparent the latest indignant parent war is to brag about your kid either not having a phone or gasp! only a flip phone as if the phone itself was the problem.[/quote] What is this emergency while walking that everyone is so concerned about? That your child might get cold? Or step in a puddle? Or do you have a child that doesn't know the way home? In that case you need a lot more than a cell phone.[/quote]
