The musician just revealed that she hasn’t allowed her kids to get their own phones just yet — much to her 10-year-old daughter Willow’s dismay.
“There’s a light side and a shadow side to technology in general for adults… For kids, I’m not there yet,” Pink said during a Today show appearance.

Pink says that even though most of Willow’s classmates have their own mobile device, she is still standing her ground.
“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,'” Pink revealed.

She continued, “That doesn’t move my needle. I don’t care.”
And although she’s against her children having phones, she doesn’t mind allowing a little bit of technology into their home.

“We can’t be dinosaurs ourselves as parents; we have to sort of embrace it and go with it,” Pink said.
