Re: My 4 year old wants a mobile phone,

At 13 I was working already! Wasn't allowed a mobile until I could pay for it myself!

Re: My 4 year old wants a mobile phone,

anyone that gives a kid of 4 a mobile phone, laptop, ipod etc needs a good slap imo

A fair few of friends have got their kids phones and they are aged between 7-11, that is still way to young imo. We seem to have turned into a world of what kid wants kid gets, and then we wonder why they grow up with no respect for anything or anyone. They are used to having it the way they want it now.
I never had a mobile till i was 21 and it done me no harm.

What does a kid need a mobile phone for?

yep, I had a knife and possibly also an airgun before I had a mobile phone. Finally bought one when I'd saved enough off my paperround

A 4 year old deffo doesn't need one, as a hypochondriac I'd be more concerned about radiation than bills or a general waste of a mobiole phone. A 4 year old's skull is so thin, may aswell just dip her head in a microwave.
That said I have two mobiles about my person at all times so I ain't having no kids.

So how did your clients get in touch then, scrawl on the phone box wall?

Re: My 4 year old wants a mobile phone,

At the moment i would say 12 is the minimum age i would give a kid a mobile, till then there is no need for them to have one, they may want one, but that is totally different to need. By next week your daughter will want a pony or something else ;)

I think four years is way too young. Let kids be kids and wait until at least 13 and can get a paper round to pay for bill.
