A modest proposal: No smartphones for kids

my mother didn't let me get a phone until I was either 13, or joined extra-curricular activities that required me to be at school after-hours. I feel like this is a completely reasonable rule, and I'll be doing the same with my own children.

No tablets or phones/social media until 14 (high school), or phone with limited access if doing extra-curricular activities/sports.

I didn't get a phone till I was 20.
I put my heart and soul into my work and I fear I have lost my mind in the process
