I whoop his butt from here to season tickets at rice chex in BYU gear. Starting with getting rid of his phone.

Especially when he's young. My kid pulls that stunt in 5th grade and he's building fences in the cold, just like in the seminary vids.

Tell your son to slash his bike tires.

How old? Talk to the parents. Beyond that, tell your kid that some people are

Are people really giving their kids phones these days in high school?

brazilcoug

12/5/16 8:03pm

Of course not. They are in fifth grade. High schoolers with cells? Crazy talk!

Tokolosh

12/5/16 8:07pm

Oh good. You had me all nervous there.

brazilcoug

12/5/16 8:08pm

Umm, even if you think it's wrong, how are you even asking this? Do you know any

fattycoug

12/5/16 8:08pm

Just because everyone has one doesn't make it right.

brazilcoug

12/5/16 8:11pm

You asked if people really gave phones to kids in HS. The answer is: ABSOLUTELY

fattycoug

12/5/16 8:25pm

Just because that's your opinion, it doesn't mean you're right

Lol....let us know how that goes. Your kids will despise you and hate you

I'm not on this earth to be my kids' friend. I'm here to be their parent.

brazilcoug

lol when you have teenagers... just wait

kotacoug

12/5/16 8:19pm

No kidding....sounds like you have this parenting thing figured out.

kansascougar

12/5/16 8:49pm

But only for like an hour and a half per night, right?

srey

Then they might need a cell phone so you can get a hold of them and to track

What would we do without all your life experience on CB?

WDaddy

Great point. You're all graced with my presence.

brazilcoug

Or your arrogance.

Haha...yeah, it'd be terrible for parents to have a way to communicate with their kids. I guess the kid could just

RichieRich

Again, somehow I survived high school without a cell phone. Not sure how.

brazilcoug

12/5/16 8:19pm

Yeah but you turned out weird so you might want to try something different

WDaddy

12/5/16 8:20pm

I dare you to come to my place of work and tell me that to my face.

brazilcoug

12/5/16 8:23pm

Does it have to be at work or could it be somewhere else? Like the playground?

fattycoug

12/5/16 8:32pm

How about at recess?

I'm sorry that you can't see the difference between the 90's and now.

RichieRich

12/5/16 8:20pm

Tell me why a cell phone is necessary. I survived high school without one.

brazilcoug

12/5/16 8:21pm

Do you have any association with teen agers?

kotacoug

12/5/16 8:24pm

It's the best way for parents to communicate with kids. That, and, why shouldn't they have one?

RichieRich

12/5/16 8:24pm

Well, there's plenty of reasons not to have them but their usefulness probably

So rather than a better way, you'd rather stay with a worse option? Did you have a car in high school? If so, why? Many

Bert609

Several people have told you that it's so they can communicate with their kids

fattycoug

On a serious note, it's a very sad reality and world we live in.

Even more ridiculous.

Everything for Church and school is done via text. You have to have one starting

BYUtka

Yeesh. If they're having kids in high school, I'd have to guess that their kids are way too young to use cell phones.

Did you have a TV in high school? Computer in the home? HOW COULD YOUR PARENTS DO THAT!?
