I really liked this video as well as the phone comparisons between Gabb, Troomi, and Pinwheel. I'd like to see a video where you talk directly to kids age 8-9-10-ish and parents about the expectations of getting a first phone. It would have the same information as this and other videos, but aimed at children as a jumping off point to start that dialogue BEFORE getting that first phone. For example, I could start with "I know you want a phone, but let's watch this short video first and then we can discuss what we think we're ready for."
I wish there was a community of parents that do all this, I feel so alone in this battle. I actually read the comments to feel supported
Great advice, thanks!
Where do we find that exact contract on your website? I found a few others there but nothing that comprehensive.
It should have appeared as a pop up and should be in the sidebar of any posts.
This contract is different than the ones on your website. Do you have a link to this one?
Same question
Hi, thanks for doing this, your help is really valuable! I'm getting my son his first phone, he's 12 and he'll be the last in his class to get a phone, crazy times. Q: do you install the apps before installing Bark, Boomerang and Google family? Is there a specific order to install those three?
I really like your agreement idea, definitely going to do that. Thanks again and merry Christmas. Rob, UK.
Bro huh? I’m in HS and I only got a phone in 8th grade and that wasn’t u common at all💀 that’s crazy that 12 year olds are havin phones tbh. I was playing outside climbing trees and what not as a 12 year old.
Hi, where can I get the tech contract? Thanks
I can't find it in her website
Even though I knew all this, the kids mother went behind my back and gave her a band new iphone and kneecapped my ability to perform proper initial setup, including her icloud account. I had told her no Iphone as well. Some parents, I swear.
I couldn’t find the contract on your website that you refer to in this video. I looked under resources, etc. how can I find it?
Go to familytech.biz/links there is a link to it there.
@@FamilyTech The link has me sign up for emails but still won’t get me to the contract
Same
Hey, thought you'd like to know - your links are not giving you credit. Couple links just going to the site directly. Keep it up!
@familytech
Can you please make a video on how to remove my child from Family Link so he can have full autonomy without oversight? A few years ago I lied about his age when I set it up because he was over 13 and now it won't let me change it to his correct age now that he's 18. The only options are to delete the account or to remove it from a device. Does deleting just remove it from Family Link or does it delete his account so he has to start over? Thank you for your awesome content! Alan
I would also like to know this as well. I will have to do the same with my 13 yr old. So the email you set up won’t let you change his birthday?
I LOVE your channel! I am preparing to purchase a first phone for my oldest child and am researching options. Love the device contract ideas. Thank you!
Mrs give your child privacy
Heather Eads all do respect but u need to find another channel that doesn't include stalking yo children
@@bboren1107privacy at 18. Before only respect and room for them to get mature but not full privacy, there is tons of danger online and on real life. Parents should be involve enough not to exhaust their children.
Can you do a video on the Bark phone??
When I pause my kid's Wi-Fi they are still getting around it and I do not see them on the network with Comcast What can I do to prevent this
Don’t control there lives
I like this. But I do think there’s no need for monitoring if your child trusts you to tell them. I’m 13 and trust my parents enough to tell them about annything I felt uncomfortable with on the internet, but I understand not all kids are like me, and not all parents are like mine.
we all know, no kids r gonna do these rules💀
my parents don't use parental controls. it has resulted in my parents trusting me and i trust them.
It is such a hard decision to make. I am glad it worked for you and your family. God bless.
It blows my mind. You're going to give your kid total access to the horrors of the internet and let advertisers root into the attention center of their brains. Sure you want to call your kid when they're out at practice or something, get them a flip phone. I'd say the kid can buy their own smart phone and plan after 16 with their own money.
I thought the1st vip thing to be clearvon before buying a child a cell phone is WHAT ACTIVITIES You want to allow. Unless you just dont think about giving them a usefull tool for their enrichment and safety and just want them to stop bugging you and need a babysitter to distract them from bugging you like I see most parents these days.
Then you should be worried about which phone to buy
Hi cutie
Eww. Super creepy comment.
@@heathereads9594 Hmmmmmm
@@heathereads9594 How come it creepy? But are you a countrygirl?

10 years later: why won't my kids talk to me?
Yo I feel bad for her kids there's probably no google button on her kids phone like she just deleted the whole thing of google if u had a parent just like her I feel bad
Respectfully..I disagree. I have experienced a child of 11yrs who was freely allowed screen time from 4yrs. This child can not comfortably walk up or down stairs due to lack of motor skills, does not understand facial expressions because they don’t excise online 2D, let’s not even discuss hygiene and how to use the restroom..it’s a problem, has zero concept how to exist with other people..communication..friends…can barely even speak to another human face to face. I know this is an extreme but nothing good comes from unmonitored screentime
