lol you cruel thing you would fry their brains the n
Bellysgonnagetya: ah i dunno about buyin a phone for a young child of 8, their brain is still developing, u might as well stick their head in a microwave
My rule was that my kids could get one when they were starting secondary school. The youngest cute madam that she is went whinging to Daddy and got one at ten lol. I refused to get her credit until she was 12.
I put 20 euro a month into their phones so they get free calls to my phone and can get me anytime. I they go over that they have to get it out of their pocket money (which they earn).
It is handy to be able to keep on touch with them but can be a bloody nuisance as I cant be gone for 5 minutes without a text lol.

There is a new one designed just for kids that wont allow them to tx or download and the parents have control over what numbers are programmed into the phone and they cant ring or receive any numbers that arent stored in it.
I think young kids having mobiles is dreadful but then Im not a parent so I might think differently if I was
