I don't agree with her getting the 10 year old a smartphone for Christmas then again I didn't have my first smartphone until I went to school for my Associates Degree. I know times have changed but I honestly didn't get my first ever cell phone until I turned 16. Oh well I managed to get the girls marked off my shopping list. I also got out of explaining the relationship fiasco.
I am meeting up with another work friend and she and I are going clothes shopping tomorrow and then I am taking the girls out to dinner and a movie.
Hugs to everyone  |
Glad your Thanksgiving went well. I just can't deal with so many people in a store at once. I got my first cell phone when I started my Masters Degree, and that was in 2001. We didn't have smartphones for a long time, but maybe around 5 years ago, H decided to upgrade. My daughter (turning 11 in December) has an old iPhone, for instances when she is alone with H -especially someplace large - and could lose him after using the restroom, things like that.
Next year, I am going to make her take it to school. She doesn't right now. But next year, we live close enough to the 6th grade school the bus won't take her. There is basically our street, the end of it (about a 2, 3 minute walk), A crossroad, then the school. That way she can text that she made it safely. I just know she would not want me walking her to school when she is out of elementary school.
