Cell Phone Shenanigans With Pre-Teens and Retirees

Cristin & Jeff Nichols Season 1 Episode 8

It's a new week and that means it's been seven days of bullsh*t that Cristin and Jeff have to vent about! This week Cristin poses a major question to Jeff and the listeners.... when should a kid get a cell phone and when should their parents no longer be allowed to operate one? 

Gabbie had one hell of a morning riding on the school bus when the thing breaks down on the side of the road. All of her classmates that were ten years old and much younger jumped on their phones to text their parents about how nervous they were, except Gabbie! Cristin and Jeff have not allowed her to have a phone yet and this situation brought up a great discussion topic on when is the right time to give your child a phone.

On the other end of this debate Cristin brings up how the Gram Cracker is getting more and more dangerous carrying her cell phone around which brings our hosts to the next dilemma, when should a person no longer be allowed to use one????
