What age did you give your kids their own mobile phone?

Personally, I wouldn't give them a phone until they're in their teens; having a phone is a big responsibility. They have to show that they're mature enough to own one.

I'll probably give when my mum is too old to monitor or fetch them. Otherwise, if not for contacting purposes, I don't see a need to.....

I felt that it will be when he is independent like needing to come home himself ? Primary 1-2?

I agree with most of you mom's...there is no need to buy or get your child a cell phone.

I apologize but I disagree. 2 and 4 is extremely young for your children to have a phone. but that is your choice.

my daughters use cp when she was 13
