[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP. We are in public and not MCPS. Our school allows phones, but they need to be put away. I wouldn't want to take the phone because if there is a school shooting, I don't want to be in that position. The unfortunate mindset of a public school parent, unfortunately. Thank you to everyone who suggested a dummy phone or a text/call phone only. I think we're going to start here. How do we get him to understand how rude this behavior is? Grades are grades, he will pass or fail, but we want to make sure he is a good human. [/quote] You know the phone is a problem. And yet you refuse to remove the phone from the equation because of a highly unlikely scenario. Nevermind that if that happened, your son would be the last to know since he’d be so distracted by his earbuds and phone to notice right away. You’re contributing to the problem, not addressing it. The phone cannot be more important than your child’s mental health and wellbeing, which he is showing you through his poor grades and disconnection is impacting him greatly.[/quote] AMEN!!!! Parents, stop using highly unlikely scenarios as a reason your kid should have a phone. So dumb!!![/quote]
