The phones – they’re coming for all of us, friends. And Samm Davidson is dealing with it all sooner than she’d like: “I was putting groceries away in the kitchen while my 11-year-old son sat at the counter eating a snack, when I heard a ‘ping.’ I suspected it was his Apple watch, but that was weird, since he only uses it to communicate with my husband and me when he’s out of the house. As I fumbled some groceries into a cabinet, a melody of pings began, followed by an alarming tween giggle. ‘What’s that?’ I asked. ‘Oh, Mom, it’s the sixth-grade group chat!’ he responded excitedly.”

Maybe he was excited, but she certainly wasn’t. And today she’s talking about what happened next.
