Ok if you have tight restrictions on what she can see. Limit the amount of time she has access to it too.

@PatientlyWaiting25 they make a watch specifically for kids that can only text or call certain numbers maybe that would be a better option

@MommaBear I'm rubbish with technology. I'd have red phone boxes at the end of every street if I had my way but it's doable, there's always someone who knows about that stuff. I'm blessed my youngest has learning delay and won't be able to understand any of that stuff.
