Should a 10 yr old have a cell?

Interesting read.
I TOTALLY agree with what this mom said:

“At this age, he is always in the company of adults,” says Mary, who asked that her last name not be used. “He can use their phone if he needs to call me.” Her son started asking for a cell phone when he was 8. “In third grade a few kids in his class got them. Some of their parents just got them to stop the begging.

“It’s just the possession du jour. He’ll want an iPhone next,” Mary says.
