Am I crazy for getting my first grade son a $600 phone for his birthday? It was free with adding a new phone line on my account.

I just want him to text his dad. And he's all about playing games on his older sister's phone when she lets him.

These kids are all about tech gadgets. I didn't even have a Nintendo or Gameboy when I was their age.

I think smartphones and tablets rewire our brains for dopamine hits... I would be exceedingly cautious about introducing something like that to a child.

That said, it is a really cool gift, in sure he will be thrilled.
