Before you unwrap this phone, we agree…

  1. The phone is on loan. It belongs to the family. I can read texts, check apps, and see where you are.
  2. You come to me first. If anything weird, scary, or wrong happens online, you tell me. You are never in trouble for telling me.
  3. No phone in the bedroom overnight. It charges in the kitchen. No exceptions.
  4. No phone at meals. That goes for parents too.
  5. Passwords. I have the password for every app. That’s how loan works.
  6. Age-appropriate apps only. New apps require approval. No secret downloads.
  7. No nude photos. Not sent, not requested, not shared, no exceptions. If one gets sent, come to me.
  8. No meetings with strangers from online. Not in person. If someone invites you, tell me.
  9. No money sent to strangers. No gift cards, no crypto, no Venmo, not even “to hold.”
  10. Social media is allowed as agreed, with private accounts.
  11. Grades and chores first. Phone time is after homework.
  12. If you lose this phone by losing it, breaking it carelessly, or having it confiscated by a school, we discuss replacement responsibility.
  13. We review these rules every six months. Rules can loosen as trust grows.
