Based on the comments here, most don't seem to understand that. Restricting access requires someone to actually parent and that seems to be too big of an ask for most of these folks. Instead a blanket ban is the only solution. And then it's only a solution if you can ban everyone else's kids from having phones as well so their precious little snowflake doesn't suffer from FOMO. There is a post on here about a dad whose relationships with his children were "ruined" by giving them smart phones. As if he has no agency outside of giving them the phones in the first place. It's ridiculous.
