    Their parents are to blame too. You shouldn’t be giving a kid everything it wants. How the fuck would a kid find the money to buy such expensive trash anyway?

      When my newborn daughter turns 12 or 13, she’s getting a dumb phone. She needs to be able to call and text her family, that’s it. Then she can go through the stages that I went through of dumb phone to slightly better dumb phone to low-tier smartphone to flagship as she gets to be 18. At that point then, she’ll be old enough to buy it with her own job money
