There is a talk about mobiles are not safe. People say that if the child is under 16 and has a mobile they might get brain cancer. If your child is begging for a phone wait till there in secondary school. Apparently everyone at high school has one and you don't want them to feel left out. In till they are 16 say that he/she can only use it for short calls and texting. That's what i recommend.

Juliet Schor, a professor of sociology at Boston College in the US and a leading researcher on children and consumerism, claims that children's 'involvement in consumer culture causes dysfunction in the forms of depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and psychosomatic complaints'.
