Children under the age of 10 should have a cell phone because, under the right guidance, they can learn the importance of it. It shows them that you trust them with important things and it may impact their behavior towards a parent or guardian.
Another reason they should have a cell phone is that it provides a form of protection. Some parents and guardians let their children out on their own at a very young age. Without protection, the child has a higher risk of getting kidnapped or hurt.
The reason I think that they should is because if something happens and they need help they need to have someone to call or text especially if it is an emergency. Most kids under the age of ten are actually smart the age I think that should have phones are maybe 7 and older.
