Seems as people are complaining to Apple that their kids are addicted to their products. Duh, another accountability issue with liberals.

I would go one step further. Only allow the kids to have an iphone that allows phone calls, nothing more. Permit no TV or other such device in the home but provide the children with a lot of books and teach them how to read and get excited about books. the rewards are life long.

No offense guys but you're clueless on the real issues, and no matter how much you wish things would remain even somewhat the same things will always move forward. But if you're talking about Apple, the issue is not about how much time kids use phones, that would be another topic.And if you think that's just Liberal kids you're crazy.

Since when does a child NEED a phone? Ever considered walking to a friends house? The school office has a phone should the parent and child NEED to communicate during the day for an emergency. A child really doesn't NEED to know what his or her friends are doing every ten minutes.

They don't walk or play outside. They play games on their phones or xboxes. If they do happen to be walking they run into poles because they are on their phones.

Small children 3 to 6 do not need to be on a phone. Older than that needs to be supervised just like watching T.V. or playing games. Yes, things move forward and hopefully for the best. And you are correct- it isn't just liberal kids.

But they do need parents that don't/won't shirk their responsibility.

Children do what they see.......not what they’re told. BE a parent. Learn the truth and teach it. Take them to venues and events that demonstrate these truths. Pay attention to the people who are spending your money. The government has no ability to create value for you......stop expecting it! Your children are unmatched gifts that carry enormous responsibility. Be responsible!!!

You hit the nail on the head when you said be responsible.
