Serious question, please be respectful with answers. Get the dialogue going.

Christian education seems to no longer be an obvious choice as it once was for serious Christian families. Why is that?

WOW! Pledges from families across the country are pouring in after the Today Show featured the Wait Until 8th pledge yesterday!

Thank you Savannah Guthrie for saying, "Wait Until 8th and the whole idea of strength in numbers is the answer" to the smartphone challenge.

She shared she has talked with some other parents in her child's 2nd grade class about delaying the smartphone together. Carson Daly agreed that a community standard for delaying smartphones is helpful!

More than 40,000 parents from across the country are delaying the smartphone for their children until at least 8th grade!

The pledge is for smartphones only. If you need to get in touch before 8th grade, we have some starter phones listed on our website without internet browsers or access to the app stores.

There are so many reasons to delay! Our main reason for waiting was to let our kids be kids longer. Instead of hours of Instagramming, scrolling, YouTubing, and SnapChatting, we're raising our hands to exploring, reading, creating, learning, and enjoying being a kid.

Plus, access to a smartphone exposes your child to
👉cyberbullying
👉 po*******hy
👉 sexting
👉 intense pressure with social media

Do you know smartphones are an academic distraction as well? Research shows the mere presence of a smartphone reduces cognitive capacity and test-taking brainpower.

Also, excessive smartphone use increases the risk for anxiety and depression.

Let's let kids be kids longer. Delay the smartphone with the Wait Until 8th pledge!

To watch the story, check out the video in our post from yesterday!
