So I’m 14 and I’m going to go to high school next year. I have gone to a private school all my life and I would feel safer to have a phone with me in high school. I think Christmas would be a good time to do it. I don’t know what I want and I would be fine with just a phone. But my dad says I can’t have one until I’m 16 and my mom says the end of 8th grade. Im going to do band in high school and I will start practicing this summer. So I would want to have it for then also. Another reason I want to get one soon because of all the wars going on. My history teacher said it is very likely that World War 3 would start soon. I would like to have one just in case something like that were to happen. He said the economy might crash. Though he might be wrong. Is there any perks to an iPhone that would make them get me one? I’m sorry if this isnt the right place, I don’t really know where else to post this.
Bud you don’t need it. Especially because of all the drama in the world. Your brain (just as most adults) can’t comprehend all the nonsense. People were simply not made to consume so much toxic BS. Relax. If you want a phone for communication purposes get a phone without internet or ask for an Apple Watch set up on one of your parents phones. I promise 25yo you will be thankful that 13/14yo you didn’t have a phone.
I would be fine with a watch. Maybe i could bring that up, I just want something to be able to contact my parents when I’m at school or at practices of some sort
