I got my phone at the age of 8 but it was only for emergency uses i didn't use my phone until i got this one I'm using now it a Samsung tocco lite i had two phone before but if/when you get your child a phone i fully recommend this so i would say to give your child a phone at a age of 10/11 depending on how mature they are. they should certanly need one by secondary or its unsafe and they need to be able to communicate with parents/guardians/friends.
It depends on the parent, if i were you i would teach your child responsiblity before you give him the phone, When you think he is responsible enough to use his/her phone. Give it to your child.
you should get your child a cell phone at age ten.
A mobile phone should be given to a child when is 11 or over!
I think a child should defiantly have a cell phone by the time they are in secondary school. Ten or Eleven would be a good age...
I think eleven or twelve is a good age for a cell phone.
After the age of two.
i would say about 15
You should give your child a cell phone that can only call Mom & Dad and 911 to prevent them from misusing it, or their friends sending them inappropriate texts or pictures. Most cell phone companies have these special phones to protect your children. In terms of when you should give your child the phone, with the special phone I have discussed above, you could give your child a phone at a very young age, perhaps 3rd grade. I think it kind of depends on the maturity level of the kid. But when i see elementary school kids with cell phones, i think its riduculous. 3rd grade is WAAAYYY too young to give your child a cell phone. I would say maybe 7th grade or when they turn 13. I'd say 6th grade.
any age should be fine .... ecxept for like todlers and stuff they say the perfect age to give a child a perm is at 8 yrs. old
My daughter was allowed to get a phone with texting in 5th Grade. So about 11.
13 years of age or grade 6 (11 or 12 years ) only because i think kids should have the right to have the freedom to have a phone and then yet again you should take it away if they are using it at the wrong times like way past there bedtime and times like that
The average age at which kids get a phone of their own is 10 years old, however personally I think they should get one whenever his or her parents thinks that it's time for there child to have one.
