Kids are entitled

I commend editor Bob Hall for finally speaking out and injecting some parental common sense and accountability

I commend editor Bob Hall for finally speaking out and injecting some parental common sense and accountability, re: kids and cell phones. Not only is there no urgent need for yet another technological distraction for children, but they also have to learn that they are not automatically entitled to something — be it a cell phone, designer jeans or, later, a sports car — just because some of their peers have them. Parents aren’t meant to be “popular” with their children, they are meant to teach, protect and love them and you don’t need a technological gadget to achieve those goals.
