I’m unclear how your comment relates to the article, or my comment. Because even if I took you at your work, your anecdotal story would still seem to place you as an outlier, maybe.

Clearly an entire class of preteens, minus one girl, has full access to their smartphones, and I’m betting at least a portion of them had just as much access when they were 8 years old.

Also, not for nothing, but you might want to consider the possibility that a child’s usage and behaviors on a smart device might change once it becomes an unsupervised activity. Or maybe it won’t, I don’t know you or your child, so who am I to say.
