Hi , I have an 11 year old girl who has just left year 6. I have messed up. I stupidly gave her a blackberry following months of her saying everyone in her class has one. She's had it afew weeks
I of course know that not everyone has one. I don't know why i gave in . Anyway I now realise it was a stupid and irresponsible decision.
She is of course way too young and now spends so much time messaging her friends as its free.
She is going to secondary school in september.I believe she can have a phone but does not need such a high tech one. I want to correct my terrible parenting a give her back her simple old phone.
How can I do this and not make her feel punished for my mistake.
