Our first topic is about something many of us would rather live without, but double back home to get if we leave them behind. Mobile phones.
We'd like to know your thoughts on mobiles phones and their usage. Things like when you should or shouldn't use them, what time is too late to call someone and when is it appropriate or inappropriate to text or call.

My parents rule was that i wasn't allowed to get a mobile phone until i had a job and could pay for the phone and the credit myself. I think it really helped teach me how to handle money carefully. I was 14 at the time, am now 17 and have had 3 phones in that time, all of which i have paid for entirely myself. However i have a cousin who is 11 now, yet got given her first mobile phone at 8years old. She has since had many phones none of which she has paid for, i find this to be inappropriate as she doesn't actullay need the mobile phone. She doesn't need a lift from work, she doesn't need it for school ect... I think there should be an age limit on who can own a mobile phone unless it is absolutely necessary.
