I admit, the wording here is a bit… Weird. But my guess is, the OP just doesn’t want their kids subjected to drama 24/7. Evolution really had nothing in store to deal with the sheer amount of information that Smartphones provide. It’s unnatural and very unhealthy for the mind. Drama face to face? Sure! That’s part of life. Internet drama? Fuck that noise. Humans need rest from certain areas of life, which they don’t get with the 24/7 online aspect of phones.
I do agree with the dumbphone bit. A dumphone makes a lot of sense, e.g. in the case of an emergency. Plus, they can call their friends, which has way more social merit than texting does.
