My parents opted to get my younger siblings iPhones for a few reasons - first, it doesn't cost much more then other phones (especially since they have free iPhone models now). You can always get in touch with them, and they also have GPS so you can keep track of them (Find my iPhone etc). Not to mention, you aren't cool or popular here unless you have an iPhone.
Am I the only person here, who recognizes a problem with what is bolded?
