[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am curious at what age is a cell phone justified? I had one in 1999 when I turned 16, but it was obviously at that point for safety...call us when you get there type of thing. Texting wasn't really a thing yet, and this was a Nokia phone so it was long before smart phones. Most of my friends still called the landline at my parents house, so I just have no idea what is normal for kids in today's world. [/quote] I didn't get one until I was 21, in 2001. I had an old school emergency car phone that lived in my car's glove box for emergencies. I think a flip phone is a good idea to start with. Kids don't need to be using smart phones unsupervised, IMO. They can search the internet on their smart phones and find anything, or snapchat with anyone. Just kick that can down the road.[/quote] And your kids are how old?[/quote]
