My answer to both my kids was simple, you want an i phone get a job and buy one, no way in hell my mum was spending that kind of money on me, forced both my kids to get part time jobs, as I type my 17 year old is selling mini doughnuts at the game

But what does making them earn it have to do with the phone itself being detrimental to their development? Seems like an unrelated "back min my day" rant, lol.

I was this way before my kids actually grew up. Social media is bad but not nearly as bad as being that one weirdo kid with Hutterite hippy parents who forbid it and you get pantsed repeatedly.

There was always that one kid in the kids locker room whose parents were that parent. Someone would bring in donuts and all the kids would have one but that one whose parents forbid it and he munched out of a lame ziploc bag of granola. That kid is going to be way better off.
