'We don't want him to have a phone yet, but I worry that his friends will move on without him.'
According to Freud’s theory of psychoanalysis , there are three parts of the human personality: the id , the ego , and the superego . Kids — by and large — only show their id. They’re kids. And what do most kids today want more of, at a younger age? No, not kale. Electronic devices, like smartphones.
But the other day, something happened that made me wonder whether I should re-think my stance. He came home from school upset because a friend of his was talking about a joke made during a group text, and then refused to tell my son what the joke was. My son, naturally, felt left out. What kind of message does it send about succumbing to peer pressure if I cave in after telling him he could have a phone when he got to? On the other hand, the reality of the situation is that he will eventually have a mobile phone of some kind. It’s part of modern life.
