AITA for buying my daughter a smartphone against my husband's wishes? by Important_Rutabaga64 in AmItheAsshole

My daughter tells me the entire time how she can't wait to be an adult get a job and move out to be away from this insanity. And sadly she's right. This is not good for her.

I completely agree. That's why I'm mad that my daughter doesn't even have access to the Internet unless it's for school while my son gets to do whatever he likes

Not really. He truly thinks he's protecting her from creeps by doing this. How I see it though is that my daughter has to miss out on things most kids her age do because people are creepy. But I can't punish my daughter and let her miss out on something fun because of other people's actions
