If the goal is safety and staying connected, should parents consider giving younger kids basic flip phones instead of smartphones loaded with apps, games, and social media? Bradley discussed whether school phone bans are the answer or if families need to rethink the devices they’re giving their kids.

Continued conversation with auto expert Craig Fitzgerald about how the average car payment these days is around $750 a month, and with gas prices hovering near $4 a gallon, keeping a vehicle on the road can get expensive fast. For many drivers, holding onto an older car and paying for repairs may still be the cheaper option.
