[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For all the parents on here who have 13/14/15 year olds and are like, we have them a phone early, no problems! Please find and read the thread about Things I wished I’d done differently, and like every single post mentioned giving their kids a phone too early. Once you do, there’s no going back. I’ll also put in a plug for making your kid buy their own phone or making $30/month or something to give you to pay for their data. Skin in the game and all that. I realize I’m an outlier but remember that the Silicon Valley bros who become parents don’t give their kids technology so early. They know. [/quote] I agree that phone are addictive especially GAMING and YouTube and all the other crap I don’t even know about. But, if a parent disables a lot of those features and the kid uses the phone for texting and FaceTiming, I see no harm.[/quote]
