Default I need some help with cell phones...

My EX-wife wants to get my 9 & 12 year old sons cell phones. She will purchase them and she wants me to pay the monthly bill. I think they are too young still. I believe the cell phones should wait till they're in high school...9th grade. Both of my kids get GREAT grades, but I'm torn. Give me a hand on this, please....

Get a basic plan. Low minutes and low text messaging. And talk her into getting cheaper phones because they phones will probably take a beating in the hands of children. And get insurance because they will mostly likely loose them somewhere.

My 12 y/o has his own cell phone. I locked it down to where he can't download anything. It is actually good, because when we need to get ahold of him we can. Also if something bad happens we can track the phone that is on him all the time.

I would not suggest getting low text messages because that is all they do! It does not cost that much extra for unlimited messages.
