 I ask because my 7 year old has a dumb phone. And old flip phone that took a beating before him so if he destroys it oh well. Data is blocked. I let him play with mine when we are out sometime and he is bored with his book and legos, but he doesn't need the data. I didnt even think of his being an unactivated wifi using phone.
(My child has a phone for very specific reasons, namely a father across country and because we have no home phone. just so no one points out the absurdity of an active phone for a 7 year old.)
I've derailed this thread enough, Sorry.

 No worries there, it's still on topic.  
My OG Droid still serves as our home phone, just on wifi instead of 3g.

							Sell sell sell.  It is how I support my habit.  When my tax money hits though I may be back to 2 devices....I got the itch.

 Haha, I'm glad I'm not the only one! Most people I know think it's absurd how many phone I've had. I just think it's all in good fun (=

							I think 10 years ago - a child (age can be defined for many reasons) with a cell phone was like "what are you thinking" and now it more common...I won't say good or bad but both of mine have phones.  We live in a world of ever increasing technology (students have computer lab in 1st grade now 
).  I think as rng pointed out - it is a way for her child to be reached and I would bet that is quite popular with most school aged children.
I know some adults that shouldn't have a smartphone 
...LOL

							Ok!!!!.........  I don't even know where to start!!!  Lol
I have 15 Android phones in my household! 
I won't go to deep into details but.... 
My 13 year old daughter has one of my DROID X's. The 3 and 6 year old use another X and the Evo Shift as mp3 players, gaming systems and kids books. The X for the kids has at least 150 games on it and they still get bored!!! Sometimes I get the o.g. Droids out to mess with roms, themes, and other hacks. The rest of the phones that aren't activated can be classified as paper weights until I pull them out of the box to display them to my friends.
