Well, Hello!

We are so glad you are here! Wait Until 8th is a community of parents dedicated to helping families have a healthy relationship with technology. We started several years ago to empower parents to say yes to waiting on the smartphone by signing the Wait Until 8th pledge. Now, more than 75,000 families have rallied together to delay giving children a smartphone until at least the end of 8th grade!

Beyond delaying the smartphone, robust digital training is necessary for families to use technology safely, appropriately, and moderately. We’re here to help! Our digital training provides families with device & app reviews, the latest on parental controls, informative best practices, and family guides to keep your family on track for success in the digital arena. Whether you are contemplating giving your kid a phone or struggling with how to teach your kid how to use a smartphone, we’ve got your back!
