I dread the day when my daughter (who is now 3) tells me that she is a laughing stock and pariah because she misses out on every event that happens at school because she doesn’t have a smart phone/no social media. The only way to correctly do this is to outright ban kids from having smart phones and accessing social media nationwide. Being the handful that selectively buck the system is a hard road.
- chgs 2y agoYou’re absolutely right (I suspect some have read this as 3 year olds need phones). But aren’t kids already banned from many places they congregate. WhatsApp, Fortnite, etc. A ban only works if 1) significant numbers support it 2) the ban is enforced And neither of those are likely outside of school, and in my experience are unlikely in school.
- dyauspitr 2y agoOh yeah, to clarify, I mean when she like 10. I believe banning kids from using smart phones is much more enforceable than individual bans on particular sites
