At what age would you say it's appropriate to allow your child to have an iPhone?

My 14 year old wants one as her friends at school have them. My better judgement is saying no. However I don't like the thought of her missing out on account of me being over protective.

unsure.

i enjoy the fact that having communication is available.

though my brats never really abused the whole 'staying in touch and especially emergencies' setup.

unsure, i guess it depends on (again) many factors.

i just want to know where my kids are especially if they've got troubles, going to be away a while, out of town or?

i can't handle losing any loved ones.

'course my kids are adults now.. but, :D they try to make an effort to.. "stay in touch" i suppose.

humph!
