Like a tree knocks out the power to the cell tower

Or he, like me, just forgets to charge his phone, because he's, like, 8 years old, and they took the chargers with them, so now he CAN'T charge it.

That's how it starts, and after he picks up a charger at the store, then the tower is down!

Or he broke his phone while exploring Buzz's room.

or accidentally dropped it in liquid or down something.

If my experience with my step kid at 8 is true, he lost his phone 2 months ago and now has a smartwatch because "if it's attached to him, he can't lose it, right?".

The charger will be under seat cushions within an hour, even though there's no reason to ever move it from the spot in his room.
