My friend had his 10 year old take him to court because he took his iphone from him and it was considered child abuse because of his emotional trauma, so yeah, ask for permission from your children or they will see you in court :)

Woah...Lol, does that mean my 11 year old can get me put in jail because I haven't gotten her a phone yet in the first place!?
I just hope you don't live in California...
Lol! I do, in fact.
I'd be very curious to know who pays the phone bill for this 10-year-old.
LOL right? Maybe the 10 year old has a job hahahhhaha!
Love your profile pic by the way ! Bender is awesome.
Same guy who was taken to court!
It's not about who pays for it I guess. You are expected to provide for your child and the accusation was not theft as I understood it, but emotional trauma.
But who litigated the case? I'm not sure I actually understand how this would work. I'd expect a case like that to be actually dismissed in many jurisdictions. Could I ask where did that happen if you wouldn't mind sharing that?
WOW! I had no idea it went that far.
I took a phone from my dad's GF and then cops took me to jail for 2 weeks. She was trying to call the cops. She was drunk and mad. I was in my house cooking dinner. She got mad. She went to call 911. I tried to stop her. She kept on trying to stop her. They came and they saw she was drunk but then said I broke a law.
I think if it's over 500.00 it's a felony, so hopefully a low end model :)
That kid got one to many participation ribbons.
I don't think participation ribbons are much of a problem and are too rare of an occasion in the life of a child to be character forming in my opinion. It's like saying that badges and other gamification attempts make Stemian too smug and that's why they are voting for themselves too often. I think it's blowing things out of proportion.
Ugh, thats early mistakes for a child to treat a parent like that. Also hahahahahaha!
