Also, parents need to have the right to spank their kids. Kids that grow up to be taught right from wrong will grow up stronger. Not talking about beatings or anything, just strong rules.
I also believe kids should only have flip phones until they are 17 or 18. Was going to say 16 but don't want them texting and driving.

I couldn't disagree with you more.
I never spanked my kid - not once. My kid talked back to my wife once when she was about five and got a Paris Island Boot Camp Marine Corps Drill Instructor dressing down that sucked the wind out of her chests. Since that day she's never talked back, never misbehaved, never been grounded or been in trouble all through school - not once.
I also disagree about giving kids access to phones. Social media is just like anything else - there is good and bad. You have to teach your kid how to use, ensure they do not bully other people, and know how to properly handle things when they bullied.
