I thought to myself, who on earth does she text, the thing seems to be glued to her hand! I didn't get a cellphone until the second year of high school, Sam and I shared one in my first year because we were traveling by bus to and from school, I hated not having a phone and would always moan to mum about it but now I see how ridiculous it is eight and nine year olds getting themselves into a lot of trouble because as my mum always says you can't take a text back once it's sent so think very careful about what you say.Lizzy Courseynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7193201105056114348.post-71968515305077016732010-03-25T09:50:12.532+13:002010-03-25T09:50:12.532+13:00I just attended Parents inc Growing Great Girls se...I just attended Parents inc Growing Great Girls seminar last night and they recommend we don't get a girl a cell phone to at least the age of 14 and even after then to keep it as a "family phone" girls are too prone to bulling from them.<br />We did however get our 10 year old boy a cell phone for his last birthday. He is absolutely not allowed to take it to school. we brought it for safety reasons, he has a job walking neighbours dogs after school. He is not allowed to give his number out to friends. He has only ours and our family numbers on it. <br />It's so funny about the kids not playing together after school any more!! at 10 I was riding horses and comparing baby sitters club books with my friends ;/Widgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16699707227049240330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7193201105056114348.post-29754848868819925442010-03-25T00:08:37.251+13:002010-03-25T00:08:37.251+13:00so pre pay phone vouchers are not an option for he...so pre pay phone vouchers are not an option for her birthday lol....<br />i could just imagine her texting you from her bedroom when she wanted something!<br />They grow so fast :(Fi from Four Paws and Whiskershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11217307759511472654noreply@blogger.com
