[quote=Anonymous]OP, good for you for starting the conversation with your ex about this. Just a few technical thoughts, if and when your daughter does get a smartphone: You can and should lock down the phone with parental controls so that your passcode would be required to install any new apps. That way, you'd have to approve each one. This would prevent anyone from doing the runaround with you and communicating with DD though snapchat, kik messenger, or other apps that would bypass monitoring that you set up on your phone account While the radiation concern is valid, I think it's a dodge of the bigger, more pressing concern: this is an inappropriate gift both in terms of its lavishness and its suitability for such a young child. If you don't deal with this head on now, he could buy her an iPad or a laptop for her birthday, and the same issues would apply. Good luck, you're a great mom![/quote]
