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?

So their parents don't have to interact with them anymore. The iphone is the new babysitter.

True!

Spoiled.

I didn't get a phone until I was 21, and that was prepaid!

I don't know. They should be for teens + only. Kids don't need so much internet and electronics now when they could just play outside and hang with their friends instead of talking on Instagram and snapchat. If they have to have a phone then get them those flip ones that are less expensive and better for calling etc. In case of emergency or If they need to be picked up from school and so on

7 year olds don't have it, but I think its good they learn about the technology so it can be something like an ipad where there's no monthly contract and you can monitor their use at home

You must be white cause I don't know any 7 year olds with phones, let alone iPhones…

  • Why do so many kids have iphones, blackberrys, and smart phones? I mean little kids as young as 5 years old. It really does annoy me because they are little and don't need a really expensive phone just for emergencies. I always see them on the phones and ipods. My brother is almost in middle school and has the cheapest phone. And i'm in highschool and my phone is nowhere near the expesive phones the elementary kids have infact my phone is used so i got for free.
  • Why do kids get free lunch but walk around with Iphones? I see so many people walk around with Iphones and they tell me they are on free lunch. What? If you can't afford lunch, why do you have an iphone? I even asked one of them that. They said because it's easy to get it, just tell the school one of your parents don't work. Wtf? Is the government going to crack down on this? People just don't pull Iphones out of their but. 300 bucks for the phones plus damn near 100 bucks a month after.
  • 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
  • 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?
