62. When Should My Child Get A Smartphone?

Apr 13, 2021 | Gospel Tech Podcast

Reading Time: | Word Count:

Today’s podcast is dedicated to answering a listener-submitted question (Thank you amazing listeners!), and it also happens to be one of the more common questions we hear from parents: When should my child get a smartphone?

This conversation is foundational to applying the Gospel to our daily tech lives and we’ll tackle it in three parts:

1) the big picture around smartphones

2) weighing the upsides

3) engaging this conversation within your home

Resources:

  • Gospel Tech resources including the game review resource: https://www.gospeltech.net/resources/
  • The online workshop to help your family build a tech framework: gospeltechworkshop.com
  • For online accountability we strongly suggest Covenant Eyes with Android smartphones and home computers: https://www.covenanteyes.com
  • For an additional layer Circle is a great resource to help maintain safe wifi access at home: https://meetcircle.com/app/
