It's up to you (if you are the child's parent/guardian). You decide based on the child's maturity, behavior, etc

When should you get your 1st cell phone?

Practically speaking, you should get your own cell phone when you already need it. A cell phone provides important functions that even a child who is as young as 10-year-old child can already own one. Money is not much of a problem nowadays as there are already cell phone providers out there who provide affordable cell phone and calling plans. Some people never get a cell phone. Generally though you can get it when you can pay for it yourself.

How young is too young for a cell phone?

You should give your child a cell phone that can only call Mom & Dad and 911 to prevent them from misusing it, or their friends sending them inappropriate texts or pictures. Most cell phone companies have these special phones to protect your children. In terms of when you should give your child the phone, with the special phone I have discussed above, you could give your child a phone at a very young age, perhaps 3rd grade. I think it kind of depends on the maturity level of the kid. But when i see elementary school kids with cell phones, i think its riduculous. 3rd grade is WAAAYYY too young to give your child a cell phone. I would say maybe 7th grade or when they turn 13. I'd say 6th grade.
