Ronaldo Junior has to use his grandmothers’ phone to call his dad as Cristiano Ronaldo does not want him to develop a youthful obsession with technology.
Cristiano Ronaldo has admitted that he banned his son, Cristiano Jr., from possessing a cell phone.
The Portuguese celebrity in an interview acknowledged why he forbids his oldest child from owning an iPhone.
The forward for AlNassr is trying to instill in him the idea that he shouldn’t be too enamored with technology and that he can’t have anything he wants.
Ronaldo has made it clear that he wants Cristiano Jr. to carry on his legacy.
He wants him to follow in his footsteps and play professional football. The 12-year-old has already demonstrated that he possesses the abilities and talent to one day rank among the finest.
Cristiano clarified that he won’t pressure his son into it; instead, it would be his decision.
Though he acknowledges the benefits of contemporary technology, Ronaldo remains suspicious of obsessions.
He has so consistently turned down his son’s plea for a mobile phone.

He said, “I think we have to take advantage of [technology] but we shouldn’t be obsessed with it.
“For example, I can give you a small impression. My oldest child is going to be 12 years old soon and he asks me every time, ‘Daddy, can I have a phone, can I have a phone, can I have a phone.'”
“I say to him, ‘Cristiano, you have time.’ I know as well that this young generation are one step ahead of their age so I agree that we have to take advantage of that but not to be obsessed about technology.
“Give them but with a period of time, not give them all the time. I think that’s the main point here.
“I ask him to wait for the future. One day, Junior asked me for an iPhone to call me but I told him no.
“If he wants to call me he should through his grandmother. I want to transmit to my son the idea that it’s not easy getting anything he wants. Education is the best thing I could give him.”
Cristiano Jr., sometimes known as Cristianinho, was given birth by an unnamed surrogate mother.
Ronaldo, the most popular personality on Instagram is now in a relationship with Georgina Rodriguez.
