At what age would you allow your child to have a cell phone?
My oldest wants one for her birthday she will be 11 but I’m not sure about it

Probably around that age.
I used to say older but I'm realising it'd be cruel to isolate a child like that when so many around them are now living in a different technical world. That being said I'd limit it's use until they're at least 13 which doesn't seem like a huge gap but it is developmentally

@MommaBear yeah, just keep an eye out and limit use until they're older to understand the dangers. Even Roblox is asking for age verification now because of the alt right extremism and pedophilia on there. I've played it with my nieces before and even on the servers targeted to under 17's there were grown men on there.
