it depends.
does the seventh grader know what to use it for?
will the seventh grader be paying the phone bill their self?
if they'll just use it for texts or calling friends, make sure they know how much they are spending in every text. maybe give them a limit of calls a week, or make sure they use it in only emergencies, and make sure they don't lose it!
if you are going to give a child a cell phone, keep calls under control, and good luck! ;P
---- Since I am a seventh grader, I know a lot about begging my parents for a cellphone! If you are at least two of these then you should get a cell phone * have a lo * t * of f * rien * d * s *
* h * av * e a
* lo * t o *
* f sporting events/clubs that you have to get picked up at
If you think your child is mature enough, sure. I suggest pre-paid. they can only have a certain amount of money each month, or every 3 months on some companies. If they stay after school alot, go over to a friend's house often, or want to walk around the neighborhood, it's probably a good idea to give them one. There is absolutely no need for a person this age to have a cell phone. All of us older kids got by with far less than the current age of kids have access to. We didn't have the internet, barely even had television in some cases ... and we all survived quite nicely.
Well, If your child is responsible. Having a cell phone is a BIG responsibility especially for a preteen or teen because, they have the texting and all that jazz. One thing that parents LOVE is that the kids can use the cell phone incase something happens such as: Forgot Project; Needs a ride home; Had an acciedent. Although 6th graders normally don't have accidents but you never know.
6th graders should get a phone because
they go to football games at school and
get involved in other after school activities.
maybe
While this is largely the decision of the parents, a fifth grader, regardless of shyness or not, has no real need for a cell phone.
I believe its either 42 or 49. I'm not positive because I'm only a 12 yr old seventh grader
Go to your local phone service store in your town. Ask them if you can get a cell phone card for your cell phone. They should be able to answer your question.
Always remember it's not the outside..it truly is the inside. Does he have a cell phone? If so, get his number, and text him..it is easier to talk about feelings through text then in person when you're a 7th grader. Try and figure out what he likes in a girl, and base off of that:) Hope this helps!!! Good Luck!!
i think that you should be at least over 16 to get a cell phone
Yes. A 12 year old should have a cell phone. They should be mature enough to handle a cell phone. My daughter's are triplets and they are all very responsible about what they do on there phone. I think that 12 year old's should have a phone.
You should be over eighteen yaers old and should have a job so that your can pay for your cell phone.
not unless you are into a phone a month
Because some big suit in an office knows that he can trick some 8th grader with a cell phone into using his service, so while parents are getting stuck with the bill, These guys are making millions.... And of course there is no way to block these services from your cell phone..
I think eleven or twelve is a good age for a cell phone.
you should call your cell from your house phone or a friends phone.
yes
