My kids already do. My 10 yr old daughter asked me on friday if she could borrow my laptop for homework. I laughed at her!! Said yeah, ok. 2 hrs later when momma got home she gave her hers to use. I was blown away that she really needed a comp for school work!
Sam they ask if i want a bag I tell them no thanks got one in the car.
I have FB. HARDLY EVER even check it. I have seen more than a few long term relationships end because of old flings finding their way back into the equation. Not saying it happens to everyone but I do know it happens.
No tweets, twitch, snapchat... there are so many different sites its scary. I found out my x gave my 15 yr old daughter a cell behind my back after I told her no (I have sole custody) and when my wife found that she made a FB page under fake name I started hunting down the phone, when I found it I was disgusted!! Pics that boys in school sent her, OTHER GIRLS sending nude photos, little boys penis!! She would not tell me who the boy was so I could have a talk with his parents so I called the police so they could find them and let them know what their kid was up to. The cop actually came back to the house the same day and told me he found out who the kid was and asked if I wanted to press charges, I said that all depends how the parents reacted and he told me he wouldn't be surprised if the boy ever even wanted to see another phone after they got done with him. I said no to pressing charges and gave him her phone to see if they could find the rest of the kids and he told me 99% of pics were taken from school and used school wifi to send the pics out.
I went to school board and filled them in and my daughter came home from school and hated me more than normal. When I finally found out what herr problem was, the school actually put password on their wifi and almost every kid in her HS found out I wss in the office throwing a fit and got their fun stopped they were all pissed at her for it. I told her she should have told me who the kids were so I wouldnt have had to call cops I never would have found out most of the activity was being done in school!!
All of our devices are locked up so tight I can never remember passwords!
