I suppose the article is written by someone in the US? If so middle school is (in most states) from year 6 or 7 to year 8 or 9, i.e. roughly equivalent (for those who live in a country where middle school doesn't exist) to the last year of primary and the first couple of years of high, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_education_in_the_United_States#Middle_school_.2F_Junior_high_school https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_education_in_the_Uni...
- JeanMarcS 9y agoIs giving smartphone to 7 yo a thing ? A friend of mine have an iPhone to his kid on his 9th birthday and, despite the fact that his son is really smart, I thought it was way to early to give a child a smartphone. The parents were going through a divorce, so it was a classical « I’m better than your mom » bad attitude, but still. I hope when the times come my own kids won’t be to needy on this, because I’m thinking like the author of the post and if I can, they’re going to wait sometimes before getting any. After all, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs prohibited smartphones and pads for their kids. There’s a reason behind that...
