Back-to-school season now comes with a big parenting decision: when – and how – to give a child their first smartphone.
Two-thirds of parents with children under 18 say they’re most concerned about screen time and social media, yet staying connected with their child is just as important in a rapidly growing digital age. It's become one of modern parenting’s biggest dilemmas.
Straight Talk Wireless is stepping in with a solution:
The First Phone Pact – a customizable, expert-backed agreement designed to help families set healthy digital boundaries from day one.
The Pact includes tools including:
- Screen time limits and phone-free zones
- Age-appropriate app use
- Safety protocols
- Digital etiquette and consequences for misuse
As the conversation around childhood milestones shifts from backpacks to screen boundaries, this signals a broader cultural moment: How do we raise responsible digital citizens—starting with their very first phone?
