Parents these days tend to rely heavily on technology to keep track of their children and ensure their safety. For some folks, this includes giving their kids mobile phones at a young age. However, one of the biggest challenges they face is deciding what age is appropriate for children to own phones and what restrictions should be put in place to keep them safe. A millennial mom named Kailey Wood–who goes by @the_geriatricmillennial on TikTok–weighed in on this matter by sharing how she regretted giving her daughters phones at the age of 10.
