[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m saying this with love, op, but you need to grow a set.  Maybe even reflect on why you were so intimidated by a stranger who was clueless about why a young child might need access to a smartphone.  This could be an issue for your dd in the future.  You need to practice an elevator pitch about your dd’s diabetes and that the phone is a tool she uses to manage her blood sugar.  [/quote]

This.  I don’t love conflict, either, but you need to find a strong voice to stick up for your kids, partly for you, but mostly for them, so they can see when they need real defending.  [b]My parents rarely stood up for me as a kid[/b] and I had to work damn hard to learn to do so as an adult.[/quote]

Same. OP - I'm sorry this happened to you. I find that the older generation is just miserable and they don't mind trying to make everyone else miserable, too.

What happened to OP was unkind and unfair, but you are just as bad as that lady.  Writing off all older people?  WTF?  Sit down.[/quote]
