Trilliums Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 If your kids/teens have a cell phone, how do they carry it around with them? Wondering how my teenage sons should best hold onto their cell phones. Last year DS carried it in his back pack and had no problems but it made me uneasy. DH carries uses a holder that clips on to his belt. My kids do not often wear belts though. Ieither put it in my purse or my pocket, but the thought of them keeping a cell phone in their pockets also makes me uneasy. Eeek! Everythign makes me feel uneasy and worried. I am debating arm strap type holders buy have yet to find one that looks decent. How do your kids NOT lose their phones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trilliums Posted June 27, 2012 Author Share Posted June 27, 2012 I think losing an iPhone at some point in our lives is inevitable. Sigh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulpanexpress Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 If you do have an iPhone and lose it, you can find it by using the free app Find IPhone. Just enable it in iCloud settings. You can have it send a message to your lost phone, have it start beeping, erase the data on the phone, look in real time where the phone is.

I lose mine in the house thank goodness. I can log into the ipad and start my phone beeping to find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joani Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 My kids keep their phones in their pockets or backpacks and we haven't had any trouble. They're so dependent on their phones that they always know exactly where they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riverland Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Pocket or backpack. (knock on wood) DS has never lost his and takes it everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daughter doesn't seem to want to carry a purse; it just isn't done (don't know what they do about period times!). I tell them NOT to carry them unless they actually need them. Not convinced of the safety of having them in close proximity at all times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
