Is it normal for an 8 year old to be like this?

This issue is making me frustrated a lot! My 8 year old cousin has her own phone (An iphone 6s!) 24 /7 she watches youtubers, takes mirror selfies (her family thinks its cute) , and don't make me forget about TikTok! She keeps making videos and watching other videos and trying to copy them! She hides her phone in her pants when her mother passes by and she hides her phone and tell everyone she is going to sleep and then she keeps using it in the dark and recently she told me that her dream is to buy the latest airpods! And she came today i thought she wanted us to have fun together instead she got on her headphones and asked me what's the Wi-Fi's password!

No she's addicted to the internet

Hello, I hope this information in the link can give you tips on how to help your cousin understand the use of Cellular Devices, the good and the bad.

Every family is different and has different values. So you will find that people have different ways of bringing up their children. Rather than being judgmental, try and see the value in the way your 8 year old cousin is being brought up in this internet age - at least she won't be found wanting in that arena. While at the same time appreciating the way that you have been brought up. Being different does not mean bad, it just means different.

I don't think so, i wouldnt give her the password

Sadly some parents are overly permissive with technology. I wouldn't say that's "norma" but it isn't as uncommon as it should be.

  • What would happen if someone from the year 2015 shows up in the streets in the year 1940? Talking on their iPhone and getting out of their 2016 brand new car and wearing clothes from this era. You think he/she would get stopped / detained and possibly killed.
  • Let my 14-year-old play SIMS 4? My 14 year old daughter wants me to get her the sims 4 when it comes out. When she was 12, I saw her playing the Sims Freeplay on her iPhone and told her to delete it and that she shouldn't play it. Now, 2 years later, she is asking me to let her play the sims 4. I know they have not rated it yet, but what should I do.
  • Is it normal to feel like this? So I'm going to a sleepover and I have to bring my iphone but I'm worried invade it goes missing at night. I know it sounds crazy but my phone means the world to me. How can I stop worrying about it? And is it normal to feel this way?
  • Is Grandma spoiling my 10-year-old nephew by giving him a $200/month allowance? - 1 That has allowed him to buy 3 bikes, an XBOX, 2 computers, a full closet of video games, a stereo, flat screen TV, iPad, iPhone, and a bunch of other electronics. Plus he goes to Disneyland, Knotts, and other amusement parks on almost a daily basis (he lives close enough to bike there). Is his grandma spoiling him?
