I am surprised to hear the ratio was 1:8. I would have expected it to be higher. Two of my children, who are aged ten and 13 years, have smart phones. All of their friends also have smart phones. I do not know many ten to 13 year olds who do not have a smartphone or some other mobile phone, or at least access to some type of technology. I am surprised the ratio is that low.
