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.

My daughter has a ' good enougj' phone. It allows her to do all she needs to do. It was half the price of an I phone....but hardly cheap! It's better than mine! Lol. She's had this one about 4 months but her last one....she smashed the screen 3 times...hence we won't buy her a super duper one because she's not responsible enough to look after it! She's 15 btw.....but she doesn't take care of anything x
