iPhone for a 6-year-old? (need a fast response!)

Howdy,

my son has been patiently waiting for the iPhone up until it has been released. He wants one really really bad, but I refuse to get him this extremely expensive phone for him. He keeps whining and crying his eyes out and even draws the iPhone and then posts it all over my house!! He has seen the ads and I even had to print one of those origami ones to quiet him down for the moment. Anyway, should I get him one, is it safe for him and will he need my help to use it?

thank you and he is waiting now!!! 🙂

no... as there is no insurance and a 6 year old would get beat up for that phone...

You ask for an opinion, but you won't like mine.

I personally think it's ridiculous for any 6 year old to have a cell phone at all, let alone a $600 one. At the most, all he needs is one of those kid phones that allow him to call only mom and dad in an emergency.

My almost 14-year-old would love an iPhone. I told her when she gets a job and saves her money, she can buy one!

Overly spoiled children do not grow up into responsible adults.
