Question

Anonymous · Answer

I don't have kids, but feel my 9 year old nephew is too young for one. His sister who is 
a teenager probably has one, not sure as I haven't seen her in person for quite awhile.

Thinking about it a little bit more--the first phone they would get would be the uncool Jitterbug Flip for Seniors.

Unfortunately, the age keeps getting lower with kids relying on devices, especially in school. But, I would buy one for a ten year old--somewhere around fifth grade. But, I would restrict the use, and be careful what phone I would buy them. They definitely wouldn't be getting a thousand dollar iPhone. I would be too concerned with their personal safety.
