The issue is that smartphones have features that are way more interesting than school. Can you send your kid to school with a simple phone that can only make calls and send and receive SMS?
You could, but in reality you should have the parenting ability to trust your kid not to be constantly on their phone in school. If you can’t trust your kid to stay off their phone during class and only use it during breaks, lunch, after or before school, etc. Then you’ve failed as a parent.
