A cell phone is a good idea if they go places with friends or by themselves. It's also a great idea in the event of an emergency walking to and from school alone then and going places by themselves.
no that's way to young!
Not many. The average age is 18-24 years old who use the cell phone most. They used 1300 total hours on the phone. The next was 25-36 year olds with 970 total hours on the phone.
actually that depends on if the ten year old is responsible enough to keep a cell phone.
yes it is a good phone for an 11 year old. but samsung galaxy y[young] is the best phone for 11 year olds.
A recommended phone for 11-15 yr olds is an Samsung Galaxy Ace 3.
Good phones for a 10 - 11 year olds are basic, simple phones, that are not that expensive. If it is his/her's first phone, you may want to start with a prepaid cell phone plan, maybe move it to the next level if the kid proves they're responsible. Some good prepaid cellphone plan companies that I recommend are Tracfone, Kajeet, and Firefly. If you want something expensive (not recommended unless you want a spoilded brat) then go for a IPhone or Blackberry.

I know 7-8 year olds with phones, and i got my phone when i was 10. So yes! But, i think its more up to your parents, as they have to pay for it!
A cell phone or an ipod touch
In order to even get a cell phone account, one is going to need a source of income ... steady income as cell phone monthly charges can be enormous depending upon the service desired and your regional area offering s for mobile phones. Thirteen year olds do not need a cell phone ... Lots of us adults lived without Television, iPods, Cell phones and such and actually LIVED ... you will too.
If your eleven year old is responsible with his other items, then he will likely be okay with a cell phone. If he has an item like a GameBoy that he takes good care of, he should be okay with a simple cell phone.
