When Do I Get a Phone?

When Do I Get a Phone?

Is your child asking for a phone? Are screens already taking over your home? You're not alone. Phones are reshaping childhood in ways we're only beginning to understand — from shrinking attention spans and disrupted sleep to fading hobbies and fewer real-world friendships. As a parent, knowing the risks is one thing. Finding the right words to explain it to your child is another.

When Do I Get a Phone was written for parents who want to have honest, age-appropriate conversations with their kids about phones and screen time — without the arguments, the eye rolls, or the guilt. Written in plain, easy-to-follow language and brought to life with cool illustrations, it's designed to be read alone or out loud together.

Whether you're trying to delay your child getting their first phone or set better limits at home, this book gives you the facts, the framework, and the confidence to make it happen.

Perfect for parents of school-age kids and teens who want practical, expert-backed guidance on phones, screen time, and raising kids in the digital age.
