Maybe I should have posted in 'teens' or 'pre teens'.
At what age do you let your d&c have a mobile phone?
I have told dd she can have one once she is at high school, mainly becuase she might have to wait a while for me to pick her up as dd2 will be at primary school finishing at roughly the same time, dd1's high school will be a 10 minute drive away so she will have wait for me, I would rather she has a phone on her.
She's not starting high school until next year. Spoke to her friends mum about it today and she said 'no way would she buy her ds a phone at that age', so is 11 too young for a phone?
