The advent of new communications technology, including social media, has unleashed a plethora of negative consequences. However, after careful consideration, I decided to give my kid an iPhone, and surprisingly, it's been a positive experience. By setting boundaries and monitoring usage, I believe it's possible to harness the benefits of technology while minimizing its drawbacks, such as cyberbullying and screen time addiction.

Key considerations include digital literacy and online safety.
