What's up with all these little kids with Iphones?

Alright, I see it all the time, 8 year olds with Iphones, I see 7th graders with them who have broken like 4 and continue to make their parents buy them new ones, it's like they're entitled to them? I think you should be at least 16 to have an Iphone and you shouldn't make your parents pay for it.
But why do parents continue to buy them when they know they don't need them and they're going to break it again?

You say that
" I think you should be at least 16 to have an Iphone and you shouldn't make your parents pay for it."

that is all well and good when it comes to you and how you raise' your kids, but the fact is that you get no say on others raise there kids.

If a kids beaks the phone that is there problem not yours. And if the parent keeps on buying the kid a new phone, I really don't see why it bothers you at all. After all its not your kid or are you spending your money.

I agree they don't need to have iPhones, but they should definitely have some sort of phone. Parents like to keep track of their kids when they're out playing. Phoning them if they need to come home, or simply checking where they are. But you know what, if these families have the money to splurge out on iPhone after iPhone then that's their business. Like I said, I agree it's a bit fancy to be giving a little kid, but whatever. You shouldn't be mad about it.

I'm 31 and I refuse to get a smart phone. I enjoy smaller bills and a battery life of a week.

Well eventually the phones will replace the children last ui heard apple had new micro chips that you put into your childs brain to turn them a walking talking Siri how cool is that

They are spoiled I didn't get one till I was 15

Why are you so concerned about what others do? Its their money, and they are the ones raising their kids, not you.

I know.
I see eight-year-olds have iPhones to.
It's stupid.
And they're too young and don't need it anyway.
I think seventh grader should.
They are in middle school.
And some of them date and walk to places.

  • Why does every little kid have an iPhone these days? It gets pretty annoying. I don't even have a phone yet, and I'm 15. These kids are spoiled. Anyone agree?
  • Why do so many kids these days have no respect for the things they get? A lot of kids these days get mad if they don't get a new iphone, ipad or laptop, game station, etc. When my friends and I were kids we and the other kids had legos, gameboys, Nintendos, and crayons with coloring books. But everything was appreciated. More kids were greatful then. Why aren't today's kids as greatful? Especially since everything works better now.
  • Why are kids these days addicted to internet and iphones nowadays? Why won't kids ever go outside, skate, play sports, play basketball, listen to music, play videogames, watch tv, ride a bike, go to beach, etc and every teen at my school just is always on their ****** iphone they even use it in the halls not payin attention to their surroundings and they are on the phone all day on twitter tweeting 20 times each hour, taking too many selfies, when will this go away kids need to do something active
  • Who do little kids have iPhones? Like, I can understand getting a cell phone for contacting your parents or even just occasionally texting your friends- when you're, like, 13 or older. But 7 year olds do NOT need phones AT All unless their parents are divorced and they do a lot of back and forth or something like that. And certainly not iPhone 5's! Am I insane for thinking this? What the heck ever happened to good old Candy Land, why are little kids doing on Instagram and Facebook?
