Ep. 84: Why, When, and Which First Smartphone?

from Brave Parenting Hosted by Kelly Newcom

We are talking all things FIRST smartphone in this episode. We distinguish between a child wanting and needing a smartphone, the difference between needing to use a smartphone and full smartphone ownership, and the wrong reasons to give a child a smartphone. We dive deep into the responsibility and readiness that demonstrates a child is ready for smartphone ownership and how as a parent, you can set your child up for successful smartphone use. Finally, we review which smartphones are out there and how you can choose the best one for your child.
