[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Get rid of the screens.[/quote] We have screentime on. She still needs her phone to be able to communicate with us for safety reasons while she’s in school, on the bus etc[/quote] Why? Our kid's HS has a no phones bell to bell rule (beginning of day to end of day) so kids can focus on learning and socialize at lunchtime. How often do you have safety issues on the bus? I would guess, hardly ever. Your kid wants a phone because it's fun to have, but if it's becoming a problem with her socially, you need to cut it off or put much tighter controls on its use.[/quote] Good for you. I would rather have her with a phone on. If she gets kidnapped, gets off the wrong stop, is threatened by random people, i will be able to track n know exactly where she is. So yes, she needs a phone , we have screentime on, so shes not on it 24/7 [/quote]
