Setting Cellphone Limits for Kids

[healthy11]

When I read the following rules that a mother, Janell Hoffman, set before allowing her son to have an iphone, I thought other parents could also benefit:

Her underlying belief is, "I hope that you understand it is my job to raise you into a well rounded, healthy young man that can function in the world and coexist with technology, not be ruled by it..." Many of us, I think, would agree.

Nice read. I agree with the mother, however, how practical is it? At least in my case, my son's response would be a roll of the eyes and a shake of the head as it usually is about anything I say. ;D
