Mamas on Magic 107.9: At what age should kids get cell phones?

Happy Monday, mamas! Hope you joined us this morning at 7:45 a.m. for the today’s “Mamas on Magic” segment on Magic 107.9. This week we’re taking a look at the best age for kids to be allowed to do more “grown-up” things, like having their own cell phones. 

And those of us with kids over the age of 6 or 7 know that they start asking for their own cell phones awfully early these days. So what age should (or did) your kid get a cell phone? And what criteria did you use to make that decision? That day is fast approaching for the two of us, so we’d love to hear your opinions!
