Yes, technology is here to stay, AND we have so many options when it comes to putting a device in their hands!
For years, Fresh Start Family has proudly worked with two of the best kid-friendly wireless companies out there – Gabb and Troomi – who are just as passionate as I am about keeping kids safe online and protecting their mental health.
My own kids have been safely using both Gabb and Troomi phones for years, and we have loved the experience! It keeps us in contact when they want to head to a friend’s house after school or if I’m running late to pick them up from practice and want to give them an update, while giving me peace of mind of knowing that social media and unrestricted internet access are not an option on these devices.
Terrin (13) uses his Troomi phone day-in, day-out & just spent the entire weekend snowboarding using it for music, but not having access to the internet & apps. We are VERY happy with his Troomi device!
