Don’t be scared as much as aware. It’s never my intention to judge others but will share what I’ve seen.
I’ve wrote about my friends and I navigating through as parents of children who grew up with the internet.
1. One friend’s daughter went to college & had mental breakdown as she never had a phone before & couldn’t cope. Homeschooled & an excellent student. I support homeschooling. 😊 She’s healthy now but it was years of hardships for her.
2. Each parent decides what is best.
3. Choosing to keep your children’s phone in a separate room ( parents room ) may be a good choice.
