Tom's not six, he's seven......you biff.......fancy getting your son's age wrong!

Re the mobile phone thing......it's hard to know what to do for the best.

I think it all depends on your circumstances.....where you live, how far the children go on their own etc. I don't think there is a right and wrong to this, it's what you feel comfortable with.

My eldest is 8 in November and I personally will not let him have a mobile phone yet......he hasn't asked for one either so I assume only a few children in his class have one.
