What cell should i get my 7 year old niece (no kid phones like firefly, amigo, or those disney moble phone)?
Answer:
OK, I'm not going to tell you not to get her a phone (although I do think it may not be that great an idea). What I am going to say is that you must, MUST find a different way for her to get to and from school. She is WAY too young to have to walk a mile alone. There are all kinds of situations that could happen to her and the last thing she needs is more pain in her life. Think about all of the pervs that are out there that could hurt her. And what about bullies, stray dogs, busy streets, getting lost, so on and so on! Find some way for her to get a ride! Do it or risk something very sad happening! Please!
Sorry that bad things are happening in this child's life. But i do not think a 7 year old dosen't need a cell phone, she might get more use out of a leapfrog pad for learning or even clothes or better yet a ride to school.
Where is the school bus?
A 7 year old does not need a cell phone to talk to her friends. Doesn't she have a phone at home?
Black boots with a low heel is appropriate for her age.
get the razr
a moterrola razr is a pretty good choice but...they break RELLY easy so maby you should get her something more sturdy tht will last for a long time an if she drops it it wont break like a L2 an i have a samsung they never break an they work relly well version has the best
What is wrong with the kid phones? She barely learned how to wipe herself, I don't see why she needs to jump right into adulthood.
She might be young but you should get her a razor of what ever phone you have.
What is the childs favourite colour.If you get a cell phone for her then itneeds to have credit in it.Iam sorry these things have happened to her.
KIDS DO NOT NEED CELL PHONES!!!!
First, I am so sorry about your niece's situation.
My niece (now 16) had a rough life too. She is being raised by my mother-in-law.
Because of her situation, she was (and still is) given everything to make up for what she doesn't have. She is now a spoiled brat. I love her, but she really is difficult.
She is too young for a cell. Too young for Ugg boots.
Take her places. Normal places for a little girl. Spend time with her (not money to ease your guilt and pain), be there for her. She will thank you for it later in her life.
My niece comes to me (I have been in her life since she was 7) when she has a problem. When she just needs to talk. We are close and I love that brat like she was one of my own.
You have the opportunity to be a wonderful influence in this childs life. Dont' ruin it by throwing money at her and spoiling her.
First of all, I am sorry she is going through this, but she needs loving support, not gifts. She is only seven and really should not be walking a mile from school alone. Can't you find someone to pick her up? We are not living in the 80's anymore when it was safe. There are too many strange people out there. She really doesn't need a cell unless there is no other way and she has to walk - then she needs it in case of an emergency. Buy her a cingular go phone and then she can call cingular users for free and use it for emergency. you can monitor how much she uses by the amount of money she goes through on the phone. Also, it is a cheaper way to go. You don't want to spend a lot of money on her first phone, you don't know how she will treat it.
My daughter is almost 10 and I got her pink fury boots with the tassel things. they are real cute.
7 year olds dont need cell phones. or at least not a goodone. if all your concered about is if she gets lost then get her a cheap one
usaually I would say she dosent need a cell phone but this is different. How about giving her a tracfone? you can buy minutes when she runs out
chocolate,slice,razor
I bought my 10 year old daughter a Motorola tracfone for Christmas and she loves it. I got it at Target for only $30.00 ( I paid $70 for the same phone 1 year ago.) I make her help out around the house and in return I buy her minutes when she needs them. No contract is great and at 7 if she loses it you're only out $30.00 (they have more expensive ones also). It's a great starter phone. I bought her a cute little trendy pink case to carry it in. Tan boots and tall height (they can be rolled down). What a great Uncle you are! Good luck and
God bless!!
If you start at seven, it'll go on until the day she dies. She will think that she can get whatever she wants because of her situation. My cousin is ten, and her parents rule is that she can't have a cell phone until she is 12. Nothing is wrong with firefly phones at that age. Why would a 7 year old need to "talk with her friends"? The reason you are giving her a cellphone is because she has to walk that long distance alone, not because she wants to talk with her friends. (or is it?) If you really do want to get her cellphone, don't make it a phone with all sorts of whistles and bells, because all she needs to do is: TALK to her friends and CALL her Gramma to tell that she is okay. I suggest a plain Nokia phone. And for the Ugg boots, they are cute, but does she really need them?
that is so not fair i didnt get my cell until i was almost 13 ! and i have a lil phone a 7 yr opld does not need a razr
Wait till she's older.
A 7 year old and a cell phone NO WORK.NOPE!
