Yes.





However, if there is joint physical custody as well, then the other parent can take the phone away while he/she has physical custody.Is a divorced parent allowed to give a cell phone to a minor, disregarding the objections of the other parent?
Legally, yes. For the sake of family harmony, though, it would probably be better for him or her to talk to the other parent. The above poster is also right to say that the other parent can take the phone away when the child is at their house.
Yes, it sometimes happen. The parents should be able to communicate all issues when it comes to the kids. Both parents should come to an agreement on things like that. Discuss your concerns with your ex-spouse and hopefully this habit will not repeat itself. Good Luck . . . .
