He is just being a bully and being spiteful like a 2 year old. Like my H, yours certainly knows how to win friends and influence people (insert huge eye roll here).
So does he pay for her phone? Does she? Do you? If you got her the phone or if she pays for it herself I would take serious issue with him not giving her the phone. If he pays for it I guess he is paying for something that isn't being used. He isn't really showing his daughter to be responsible, he is punishing her for forgetting her phone. She will not want to ride in the car with him at all ever again if this is how he treats her.
Of course I am preaching to the choir here. You know all this. I just wish I could help you more. He is ruining his relationship with his kids. That's his choice I guess, but it's pathetic none the less.
Try to hang in there, NLW. Keep praying.
