Cell phone crisis!!

Ok so im 11 and that's a resonable age to get a cell phone right?im almost 12 and I really want one because I was at a party with my friends who're about the same age as me and like 4 or 3of them had cell phones and it's just unfair!!!iwant a cell...

phone!!so at about what age should you be able to get a cell phone and how could you convince your parents to let you get 1???

my opinion, your way too young to have a cell phone. Unless its like a prepaid one if you get lost or something. Not a phone to talk to your friends and try to be cool with.

Your parents know you best - they're looking after your best interests - show them responsibility and respect and it won't be long before you're using your minutes...Take care !!

My nephew has a cell phone and he's 9.Convince your parents by showing them that you are responsible enough to have a cell phone.Tell them about how good it is to have a cell for emergency.Tell them that you can call them from anywhere to let them know if you'll be late so they don't have to worry.

the best way to convince your 'rents is to tell them you'll get a prepaid one, and pay for it all yourself.
the phone itself is like 20 bucks.
