nintendo

Yeah

I only got one since I was going to university

I would not have gotten one otherwise

if a kid doesnt have one in grade school at this point, their parents are fucked in the head

When we were kids the iphone was like uh, a new concept

yup

spooky, I do not trust your judgement on sound of mind

you will then tell me that any parent who does not feed their kids dipped nuggest while driving is a madman

if you are denying your kids a phone, past grade 4 or 5

at this point

its not denying

it's cruel

Flip phones were still cool

they never asked

honestly, I'd make sure my kid had a phone as soon as they could

my sister wanted a switch, my brother is saving to get a gaming pc

even a cheap $100 starter smartphone

spooky they do not need them

they would just use them to play phone games on

they have tablets for that

do they literally never leave their house?

not by themselves

school?

Itd be annoying not being able to text them for shit

^

school is a 10 minute walk away

and my sister takes the bus to a farther school because she has behavioral issues

trust me, I still laugh at little kids with $1,000 smartphones

but if they don't have anything

Just get them like an iphone 5

I laught at kids with phones in general

I'd feel like the parents are forcing some weird belief on them

Like $50

I think its stupid

you don't need one

literally every one of your peers in school has one

you don't need one to play Genshin impact

My sisters got phones 2 years back and one of them was still in elementary school

Like tf

you need one to be connected with your world

maybe the US is different, I don't think its even past 50% of primary school students

who have phones

same shit with computers a "family computer" is not enough

Everyone owns a phone

Their father works at Apple so they got them free

kids in America are rightly getting phones before age 5-6

Lol yup

Listen, the real reason you give kids phones before theyre like 10 is so they dont look up porn on your pc and fill it with viruses

see thats just maddening to me. Just get them a tablet

they can't call people on a tablet

nor can they network with friends

they don't need to make calls

at age 5

Everyone has owned a phone for I'd say for the past 7 years. I didn't get one tell graduation but that's because I am a cryptid outlier who hates communicating and obligations

why the fuck don't they?

spooky just because you want to call a 5 year old

Also i think you can through shit like google voice anw

does not mean they should

true reggie, but still

I think my youngest sister was like 8

if we time travel back to the 90s, you're right they don't need phones

they still don't need them now

But everyone in her class has a phone

you are just wrong

^^

It's crazy

She doesn't have data or anything

that's just it though, if you can't interface with other kids your age

because your parents are anti-phone fags

it just fucks you up

you can its called going to school and talking to people

you fucking antisocial retard

Like I did get one until 8th and my oldest sister got one in 7th

what do you think kids do outside of school Pika

Nothing

Lol

play on their computers/tablets

if you think they should be sequestered from teh interenet until they're teenagers

that's fine

but I don't
