Mobile phone for kids - do on own or part of a deal

[northernladuk]

Its all snapchat which makes "policing" even harder as there is no way of seeing these snaps, the[B] photos arent stored on the phone [/] and can't be automagically uploaded to icloud for photo sharing

I suppose its all about trust

I didn't think that was true. They say they aren't but I thought they could be retrieved?

I thought you had to "screen grab" the image before it disappeared, although I daresay I'm out of date with what kids do with their phones and how

And if you screengrab, it tells the person that sent you the snap that you've grabbed it.

DD1 is going to secondary school later this week. Was going to get her a mobile phone. Was wondering if most people who have phones for their kids do it as part of a family deal (ie. all on one network) or just get a separate one?

Opinions?

Get her the same phone you have, so she can show you how to use it.

I mean like this and many other pages.

Take a photo of the screen with another phone.

Personally I would resist the begging for a phone for as many more years as possible. The tulip they can get up to is truly awful and you bring all the playground crap straight into the house 24 / 7

My time over my kids still wouldn't have one and they are teenagers.

The whole of my daughters school got to see some poor 15 year olds girls biff last year. The schools reaction was happened the last five years too so why are we going to.be surprised this time?

Kids despite what we think when we love the are ferral little bastards and the lord of the flies wasn't nearly graphic enough compared to their craved behaviours....

Did nobody make a child pornography complaint to the police?

You seriously don't get how prevalent the Snapchat mess is do you? And by the way if someone had made the complaint it's the girl that would have gotten the criminal charges because she made and distributed the images in the first instance.

The whole thing is sick and ****ed up beyond all recognition
