At what age should a kid start using a mobile phone?

I believe the best time for a kid to have a mobile phone should be when he or she is matured enough to know the proper uses of mobile phone.

When we give phones to kids who don't even know how to make use of it effectively or productively, they end up using the phone as a disadvantage which may cause great problems. This means such kids may end up watching or viewing immoral activities via their phones such as porn or other immoral activities.

Most people may want to give a specific age which is mostly from 15 - 18 years, but the fact is age doesn't determines your maturity sometimes.

I know of kids who behave like adult due to the kind of exposure and training they have undergone. This kind of kids are able to make use of mobile phones accordingly and they use it as a positive advantage.

I conclude by ensuring every parents or guardian to be very careful about the type of mobile phones they give their kids to avoid negative impact in the kids life. It is recommended to teach the kids about how he or she can be successful making use of his gadgets and explain or ban such kids from immoral activities the kids may want to involve or delve in.

Thanks for reading and I hope this helps.
