[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it’s unfair you got your older daughter a phone at 14 and you aren’t doing the same for your younger. And I’m not a teen! So I imagine it feels pretty unfair to her, even though there are reasons. Get her the phone, and impose whatever restrictions kept your older daughter safe/not distracted at the same age. I wouldn’t say “fine, you can have a phone!” Instead I’d surprise her with it for some event - got good grades, going away for weekend and want her to have it for travel, whatever. [/quote] It make a far stronger impression for OP to model mature behavior by apologizing for her mistakez than to embarrass herself by trying to pretend she had some genius plan for withholding the communication device.
