I didn’t read responses yet but I have to chime in -
Dr Becky (good inside) has a podcast on what to do if you have your teen a phone and you see it’s not going great.

I wish it had a list of rules to implement from the beginning but it’s still an important listen.

(Also she mentions taking the phone away at 9 pm every night - not as rule, just that’s the example she gave).

I'm curious what age the 9 PM limit is geared for...

where can you get that?


https://koshercell.org/
I got basic flip phone from the actual store in Lakewood. Just calls & texts. (All phones nowadays are smart, just they 'kosherize' them by limiting its use.)
There are other places / websites too. Realize that if you dont get a kosher'ed phone (or filtered through a TAG office), even without a data plan, they will be able to get on the open internet with wifi.
Its been 3 years now (had to replace the phone once) and she has been complaining about getting a 'real' phone for a while now, so will have to deal with that when it comes.
