Parenting Time Phone

My 12 year old granddaughter has managed to break three phones that were in cases, including mine.

Then you should educate your granddaughter about proper cell phone care. If you haven't, that is on you.
Because quite frankly, that is negligent.

Wow. That's talent right there....

If you call putting them in her back pocket, and then sitting on them "talent" then she has it in spades.

I've never understood why people put phones in their back pockets - and that applies to people of all ages.

I don't get it either. It's a recipe for disaster. Also, she might as well be an adult, she is 5'8" tall at age 12.

I've damaged a phone one time. It slipped out of my hand as I as getting situated in the cockpit prior to a flight and the corner struck the intercom box on the floor of the plane (small plane). The small ding on the exterior of the phone never caused any problems. Ever since then, I've made sure to (1) have a case and (2) make sure the case was rubbery/sticky.

I didn't know you were a pilot! Cool!

I have ridden a motorcycle over 60K miles with a phone in my back pocket. From iPhone 3 - 7 and never have I broken one.
