Knowing when to give your kids a phone and what kind is a common question we have as parents. This is something we often talk to family and friends about. There are so many different options, which one do you choose? And how do you manage your kids' phone use? We don't have all the answers, but we're sharing some stats that we've learned as well as what we do in our home. This is just what has worked for us. 

We love our Troomi phone for our oldest daughter and it has worked great for us. Use the code PARENTING to get $50 off your Troomi phone. Or on November 8-9, we will have a special 48 hour code that only our listeners have access to that will get you the $50 off PLUS 6 months of free cell service. So join our newsletter to get the link on those days or follow us on Instagram to get the code there. Mark your calendars because it's only those 2 days!
