When Should Parents Allow Kids To Have Cell Phones?

[@sandrayancysmith916]

They will become addicted to phones, iPads, tablets, laptops and PC's at any age there is no way around it. They become addicted to immediate gratification and entertainment.

Good morning Rickey good morning America nine years old was seen in California. Kids can’t take no cell phones to school and if they do take a cell phone to school, they gotta give it to the teacher. They can get it after school and cell phone is only for emergencies.

They can have one in 6th grade but it doesn’t need to be a iPhone or it have internet access!

My opinion on this … It depends on how responsible the child is. I feel age 10-12 ? The one caller suggested a flip phone,so they can use it to call home if need be. There is so much technology out there right now. I have confession..I’d be lost without my cell phone.📱 It’s my lifeline…seeing as how I’m alone.. it entertains me. Pitiful I know.. 😂😂

I Think A Kid Can Get A Monitored Cell Phone Around 11 or 12. No Younger Than That.

They have watches where you can know their location and they can communicate with you and you them l.
