At what age would you say it's acceptable for a child to have a mobile phone?


Personally, I let my daughter have one at 11 as she was moving upto secondry school. For one - safety and two - not being bullied for not having one. But obviously there are drawbacks too. Not having the right phone or the risk of getting it snatched.

Thoughts?

My bro in law gave my nephew a phone when he was about 5 which I thought was just silly
