Parenting, Technology, and Social Acceptance

Parents and their high school friends discuss the issue of giving cell phones to their future kids. While they initially agreed to not let their kids have phones until high school, they realize it's more complicated. They acknowledge the importance of social acceptance and the changing norms of technology. The parents reflect on their own experiences, like the father who got a Facebook account to understand social media but found it outdated by the time his kids became teenagers. The mother and son have different perspectives on technology, with the son feeling restricted by having to put his phone outside his room at night. Overall, they conclude that there is no right way and that their opinions may change in the future.
