Hot Topic: Kids and technology

Posted: Updated:

According to a report in the LA Times, a mother bought her son a new iPhone 5 but it comes with a contract from the mother.

The 18-point contract established the ground rules for the use of the phone, including mom always having the password to the phone.

She also advised her son to experience life, and not document every event that happens to him.

And the caveat for the son, if any of the rules are broken, mom gets possession of the phone.

OUR GOOD DAY HOT TOPIC QUESTION:  What are the ground rules for technology in your home? Post your comments on our FOX 5 Atlanta Facebook page, or tweet us @GoodDayAtlanta.  We'll read some of your comments on the air during the 9 a.m. hour of Good Day Atlanta.
