Pink won't let her daughter have a mobile phone and she has a perfectly good reason why

"She pointed out to me yesterday, 'you know most of the kids in my class have a phone.'" 

She'll cover her in sunshine, shower her with good times but if there's one thing Pink won't be doing for her daughter, Willow, it's get her a mobile phone. 

The singer has revealed that having access to her own phone is something she won't be allowing as a parent - and she has a perfectly good reason why.

Why Pink won't let Willow have her own phone

As parents, Pink and husband Carey Hart are pretty free with their two children - Willow, 10, and Jameson, 5. They have travelled the world on tour with their superstar mum, shoot rifles on their farm and have even dyed their hair different colours. But when it comes to technology, Mama Bear has some strict rules. 

"There's a light side and a shadow side to technology in general for adults, as well," the singer revealed during an interview on the US Today show back in 2022.

"For kids, I'm not there yet." 

Despite 10-year-old Willow's best efforts to try and convince her, Pink says she has put her foot down on her little girl having her own phone. 

"I have a 10-year-old who does not have a phone, although she pointed out to me yesterday, 'You know most of the kids in my class, fifth grade, have a phone.' That doesn't move my needle. I don't care," she revealed.

Pink is our parenting muse

While she has some strict rules around technology, Pink insists she's not doing a full Madonna and banning it altogether. It's just parenting with boundaries - and allowing them to find the small joys in life that don't come from a screen.  

"We can't be dinosaurs ourselves as parents, we have to sort of embrace it and go with it," she said. 

And as someone who is regularly targetted by the parenting police online for her parenting choices, we're sure many would be applauding this decision by the star. As many of us know, it wouldn't be an easy one!
