About this standard

What Wait Until 8th asks for.

Wait Until 8th is a grassroots movement of over 130,000 families who pledge to wait until at least 8th grade before giving their children a smartphone. Phosra can enforce this pledge at the device level for families who adopt it — restricting smartphone app access, social media, and mature content across all connected platforms until the child reaches 8th grade age.
