From a heart broken parent of 2 sons forever damaged by technology which led to drugs: take the damm phone away from her TODAY.

Hi there I am Hannah and we began as an Orthodox Jewish family of 5 children in Israel with me enthusiastically getting Internet into our home and then of course smart-phones.

All I can say is: our oldest eventually figured out how to order LSD online - this after “praying to get access to my computer “- and have it shipped to my home address and next you don’t want to know the wars and the battles that we have had to deal with in the past 10 years in our home - including psychiatric hospitalizations, local police numerous times in our home, court orders evicting the by now thoroughly addicted oldest from the home - we are talking about absolute pandemonium.

Do yourself and your daughter and your husband a favor and get rid of the I phone in her hands TODAY. Close the line. If you can shut down the 24/7 Internet with parental controls and only absolutely essential Internet access for parents for really one hour a day.

Give her back her active and creative childhood and in the future you will thank G-d on your knees if you are able now to hear my advice coming from over a decade of real live grief that Internet access caused in our family - including an absolutely unnessary divorce eventually between me and the father of our 5 children. Have mercy on your precious daughter and get rid of the IPhone today.

Blessings:
