I guess if the child is responsible, maybe in Jr.High and only used in case of emergency, it would be ok. I think the more we give our kids, the more they will expect. I am glad cell phones weren't popular when my kids were growing up.Mimi's Toeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06918834487225748283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7323908500781406111.post-4504114987657968092008-03-04T13:45:00.000-06:002008-03-04T13:45:00.000-06:00My oldest, who is 13 has one.

I do like that she has it because many times we drop her at church for youth group, and she can call us when it's time to pick her up. Other than that, I work in their school, we drive them to and from school, and other than that they are always with trustworthy adults. There is no need for them to have one. She is also very responsible. When the other one's are 13, we'll see.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06454841194149956666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7323908500781406111.post-55006082470336627312008-03-04T12:56:00.000-06:002008-03-04T12:56:00.000-06:00My son, who is 9.

He takes it with him on sleepovers and playdates and it is reassuring to me that I can get a hold of him, and he can get to me if he needs me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7323908500781406111.post-61410154799976490272008-03-03T20:05:00.000-06:002008-03-03T20:05:00.000-06:00My older girls 8 & 10 have been begging, but we th...My older girls 8 & 10 have been begging, but we think they are too young. <BR/><BR/>Where do they go without me?? No where! <BR/><BR/>We said they could have them at the start of 6th grade...that is when they will start at the Middle School and when activities will require me to pick them after school,etc. so I figure then they may have an actual need for them. <BR/><BR/>A lot of my third graders friends have them already though...I just don't get it. It's not really abou the extra money for us, it's more about the need. There is no need for them to have them right now, so why get one.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10459382870257912689noreply@blogger.com
