Esperanza Gailliard says
September 12, 2014 at 8:57 PMYes I would let my Tween/Teen have a cell phone. I think they are good to have especially when they are going to hang out with friends you can keep in touch. Keeping in touch is important.
Ivette says
September 12, 2014 at 8:09 PMDefinitely. These days I think it’s imperative to be able to communicate with each other!
Arik Issan says

Katie Bellamy says
September 10, 2014 at 8:15 PMAt that age they may not be home so much, so yes I would like to get a hold of them when I need to!
Paula C. says

Shakeia Rieux says
September 9, 2014 at 8:28 PMThis would be for my niece so she can have a phone for emergencies
Sue E says
September 9, 2014 at 8:02 PMYES, as long as they are responsible. I would feel better if I could get a hold of them when I want or need to & vice-versa for them! Now-a-days many children go missing & I would pray a phone would help them in a periless situation.
Karen Hamway says
September 9, 2014 at 7:08 PMThis phone is perfect for my 10 year old granddaughter! 🙂
Jackie smith says
September 9, 2014 at 6:25 PMPhone yes but no data. I like the idea she can phone me when needed but not the idea of her having access to the internet.
Mary Dailey says
September 9, 2014 at 8:49 AMYes, I would always want them to be able to get in touch with me in case they get hurt or they are in a sticky situation.
amber says
September 9, 2014 at 8:30 AMYes, in case of emergency purposes. I’d want my child to be able to get a hold of me no matter what the situation.
Mary Withrow says
September 8, 2014 at 8:10 PMActually mine will be a 9 year old. I think there is alot of factors. Everyone works in our home and children are going and coming, school, lessons, etc. so it is very important to check in with me. I could not stress how important. So this will be for communication to family only and in case of a emergency. I find I have more problems with my older ones, lol
Karen Hamway says
September 8, 2014 at 7:11 PMI hope I win this for my 10 year old granddaughter! I would feel more at ease knowing she has a phone with her at all times.
Christa Bengtsson says
September 8, 2014 at 6:56 PMI have a 14 year old and a 11 year old and they don’t have one. My 11 year old bugs me about it more than his older brother.
Cindy Conner Bowling says
September 7, 2014 at 10:56 PMYes, so she would always have a way to contact me if needed.
Gale McCarron says
September 7, 2014 at 10:24 AMI would let them have it with a great deal of monitoring. Seems to be the way of the future.
Denise Elliott says
September 6, 2014 at 11:52 PMYes because of all the school shooting and bullying I would rather be safe than sorry. Back in the day our thing was a pager and I got mine at 10
michelle oakley warner says
September 6, 2014 at 5:56 PMyes i would, i like knowing that she is a phone call away. Just have to monitor and reinforce good phone habbits.
Kimberly Snyder says
September 6, 2014 at 5:13 PMyes, i would like to be able to keep in touch with my kids, age 11/12 is fine with me
Linda Walker says

misty billman says
September 6, 2014 at 12:28 PMyes for emergency .
Megan Cromes says
September 6, 2014 at 4:12 AMno he doesnt we cant afford one.
Birdie Skolfield says
September 5, 2014 at 7:37 PMYES this is exactly what my 13 yr old needs
JDENNIS says
September 5, 2014 at 7:08 PMYes for emergencies and when not with us.
Jennifer Rote says
September 5, 2014 at 8:41 AMIf it was affordable and I was able to limit its abilities.
Rhonda Martin says
September 5, 2014 at 4:49 AMI think there is a difference between an 11yr old and a 13yr old. At least when I was growing up I feel I was much more mature as an 8th grader than I was as a 6th grader. With functions like band , sports and clubs they are busy in Jr. High So my answer to that is no for a 11yr old but yes for a 13yr old. It would come with parental controls and rules.
Elaine says
September 5, 2014 at 1:09 AMthis would be for my niece.
Veronica M says
September 4, 2014 at 9:14 PMYes. For emergencies and communication.
Nicole Flynn says
September 4, 2014 at 7:23 PMYes, but needs to be turned in at bedtime on school night,a, then can get it back after school.
Trisha says
September 4, 2014 at 7:11 PMMy 11 year old has a pre paid phone for emergencies.
Beanybopp says
September 4, 2014 at 7:15 AMNo I would not allow my child that young to have a phone…..we had to have good grades to be able to have a job, a job to get a car/license and all that before we could get a cell phone. I believe that no 11-13 or even 15 year old needs a cell phone.
Marilyn Nawara says
September 3, 2014 at 7:45 PMYes I would let them have a phone — 11-13 years is old enough to be responsible for a phone.
Dorrie Turner says
September 3, 2014 at 12:56 PMYes, I would this is a great starter phone, but their would be restrictions and consequences for not following the rules.
Candice says
September 3, 2014 at 8:13 AMI don’t have a child in that age range, but my niece has a phone mostly for emergencies. I think it would be helpful for that mostly.
Melissab97 says
September 3, 2014 at 6:43 AMThe oldest had to wait until they were 13 to get a phone….the youngest probably won’t have to wait quite that long as we don’t have a house phone and don’t like him not having immediate access to 911.
tina m says
September 3, 2014 at 6:16 AMYes, I would let my daughter have a phone so I know where she is going to go next and for emergencies.
ken ohl says
September 3, 2014 at 2:42 AMyes when they went on a sleep over but not on a regular basis. thankyou, ken
Stephanie Robertson says
September 3, 2014 at 12:26 AMYes just in case something happened and they needed me or just to check in on them if they are at a friends house.
leslie ross says
September 2, 2014 at 10:25 PMYes as long as she gets good grades and does not abuse it and the internet
Susan Faatz says
September 2, 2014 at 9:54 PMI GOT MY GRANDDAUGHTER A CELLPHONE TO USE WHEN SHE WOULD COME TO STAY WITH ME. THIS WAY SHE COULD GO VISIT HER FRIENDS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND ALL I WOULD HAVE TO DO WAS CALL HER TO LET HER KNOW IT WAS TIME TO COME HOME OR TO CHECK TO SEE WHERE SHE WAS.
jeri boss says
September 2, 2014 at 9:52 PMyes both my kids have phones

Susan W says
September 2, 2014 at 8:25 PMI would allow her to have a phone for emergency and to contact me.
Tara Liebing says
September 2, 2014 at 8:05 PMYes I would, because it would be easier to keep track of and get a hold of my son when he’s playing with his friends. He has used a pre paid phone before and was responsible and it made life easier.
Robin Abrams says
September 2, 2014 at 8:02 PMYes I would for emergency.
Tania B says
September 2, 2014 at 7:36 PMMy daughter will be 14 soon and she still has no phone. It would be different if she were in sports, band or stayed at school in the afternoons- but she doesnt. I have seen what girls and boys ages 11-13 can do and I am trying to teach her to be different. Now my son got his phone when he turned 11 because of football practice, but only had limited access to it and I didnt let him just sit around playing on it– texting and facebook. He is now 16.. My daughter still has no facebook or any social media– she thinks she is going to die because of it. But so far — were still making it.
Linda Madden says
September 2, 2014 at 7:27 PMYes, my granddaughter has one. I think she needs it for safety
Maggie Holcomb says
September 2, 2014 at 7:17 PMIf the child was mature and needed it for after-school activities and play dates.
Barbara Platt says
September 2, 2014 at 7:16 PMyes, my grandkids have phones and it’s great to keep in touch with them. If we get worried when they’re anywhere, we can check on them.
Candie L says
September 2, 2014 at 7:15 PMWe rewarded our 12 year old with a phone for having all As his 6th grade year. thank you
molli vandehey says

Ron Miller says

Tammy Schweitzer says
September 2, 2014 at 6:49 PMI would not let one that young have a phone sorry
