I don’t think kids should be allowed a phone until a certain age, I think that age should be 13. The reason I think this is because kids don’t realise that when they send something or post something on social media it's there forever and they can’t take it down, can be a distraction and online safety.
Do children realise their information could be kept forever online!!!! If you send something or post something on Facebook or other social media you can’t take it down. Kids playing on phones causes people being lazy and unfit and will keep them inside. I think that a Chromebook at school is enough and they don’t need another device. If they do have a device I think that they should not have social media like Instagram and Snap chat until they are at least 13. When kids do have a device I think they should not be aloud on the until after about five o’clock or five thirty because that means they still go outside and enjoy themselves when there not on there phone.
Would you like your kids having social media and talking to random people without you knowing? Children under the age of thirteen don’t usually realise what harm social media can do that is why there is an age restriction, like Facebook, Instagram and snap chat are all thirteen plus.
That is why I think that kids under the age of thirteen should not be aloud a cellphone, would you like your child having a phone with social media were the could be talking to anyone? Would like like lazy unfit children that just sit inside all day or would you like fit fun children that play outside? I think I know what I would want.
