Ask HN: How do middle schoolers talk to each other if they don't have phones?

1•syedkarim•8mo ago
I have a kid starting middle school in the fall. She does not have her own phone and neither do any of her friends. None of her friends have home phones, either. So how do middle schoolers talk to each other over summer break? I'm assuming her situation is not unique, so this is a general question.

Oh dear Summer child! What do you think happened in the 70s and 80s, when literally nobody had a mobile? They arrange a time and place and meet. Then they play until the set curfew.
mytailorisrich•8mo ago
Yes but people did have home phones to arrange said time and place!
JohnFen•8mo ago
We had a "home phone" for this. It was a cell phone, but for family use and it never left the house.

Are social media chat programs on desktop machines not a thing anymore?
