Poll:What age is appropriate for a cell phone?

How about neither? I think that kids shouldn't get cell phones until at least 13 years old. I mean, most kids don't actually start going out with their friends until that age anyway, so why give them a cell phone before they need it?
 
It depends, whatever age you can pay for it.

i agree with u kids shouldn't have cell phones until age 13.hehe my 4 year old bro has one but it it doesnt call people cause thers something wrong with it
 
12+

I got mine when I turned 12, and that was the age I started to go out with my friends without my parents.
 
the correct answer is whenever i get one and older ( im extrealmy mad at the little 8 year olds that have celly's and i dont )
 
it depends if you really need one....like me im getting one because I walk to alot of places with my friends and i alaways have to use my moms. But if 8 year olds have them then... but i would say 12+ unless u really need one for a reason.
 
When a child can be considered mature enough to handle a damn phone in the first place.

People like my younger brother, do not deserve cell phones. He lets it die, misplaces it often, drops it, never carries it with him, etc. Plus, he didn't even need it.
 
any time really....i dont think it matters. I got mine when i was in 3rd grade.

I'd say 14 and up.
I think that only high-schoolers should have cell phones, elementary and middle school students wouldn't even use it much.
