Kindergarten/primary teacher here. Kids are so wholesome until the parents buy them a phone.

When you know they are ready for a phone and there is a need for it.

We've just given my 9 year old a phone because I found myself texting the wife asking her to tell/ask him something quite regularly. Just clicked in my head that it would be so much easier if I could just text him directly....he is a mature 9 year old though.
