      To cutoff children from smartphones when they are in an abusive household. So many children are able to identify/get out of their situation using their phone

      Given the context, it seems to make sense that they mean it’s a bad idea to withhold smartphones from children in such a situation.

      I would argue that they don’t need a smartphone specifically, but some means of external communication (a prepaid normal flip phone, for example).
