How old were you when you had your first mobile...

[Ammi]

..I was just reading that 1 in 10 children have their first mobile before the age of 5yrs, with most people having one before 11yrs old..how old were you when you had your first one..?....

I got my first phone when I was about 22 I think....it was the size of a housebrick. I'd had a pager for a couple of years first.

[BigSister]

[reece(:]

[Shaun]

I was 11. Some Sony Ericcson mess. Then got a Nokia 3210.

[Harry!]

No joke but I think 16, I resisted having a mobile as much as possible.

About 20, I remember a friend in College being the first to get one, and asking him 'what did you get that for?. Who needs a mobile phone'? :joker:

Kind of makes me sad that kids these days will never experience their mothers standing on the doorstep on a summers evening and shouting your name at 8pm, and you hearing it 5 miles away.

[Zzz]

I was 11 too and it was a Samsung. I only got it because my brother got a new one.

[MeMyselfAndI]

Year 6, so umm.. When I was 8 or 9?

This...^. Do kids still play out the same though? They don't where I live..

I guess they don't. Going by my nephews and nieces they play video games or watch TV 99% of the time.

When I was a young child before the internet was even heard of it was a different world.

Computer games and the Internet have a lot to answer for.

[KingBilly]

Like, 6

[Jessica.]

I was 11, it was a Nokia 3510i, it had a COLOUR SCREEN!! :amazed:

[Princess]

I got one when I was 12 because I started secondary and needed it in case of emergencies.

[Niamh.]

I was 20 lol my daughter got one when she was 12

[Jesus.]

Because you live in ******ing moss side, and they'd probably end up being shot.

[Jesus.]

I was 20 lol my daughter got one when she was 12

Sunday? Niamh you are a day early, please return tomorrow.

[Cherie]

5 is just a ridiculous age to get a phone, unfortunately it won't be long before alot more 5 year olds get one, as some parents need their kids to have everything every other kid has.

Both mine got them when they went to high school at 11.

[Verbal]

Sunday? Niamh you are a day early, please return tomorrow.

Filed under 'Things you would never hear Jesus say':joker:
