Just kidding. But I do think I'd make them wait until they were 14-16 or so. No kid of mine, at 10-11, would have their own iPhone. At that age, a (locked-down) iPod touch or iPad mini is all I'd consider. And no social media and "chat" stuff either. Not at 12 or under. Sorry. |
I'm that dad. My oldest doesn't have a phone yet. Now they do have iPads, but not phones. I also have Screen Time set and I do have all their passwords.
Social media? Not in my house for any of us, though I do still have an ignored Twitter account.
