Joshua's 1st Mobile Phone

Tina has just upgraded her mobile phone which meant her old one was surplus to requirements. The boys have both been nagging that they want our old phones when we upgrade them and we have kind of been reluctant to do this because we just feel they are too young and don't need them until they go to senior school. However we have the pier pressure thing coming in to play as a lot of Joshua's friends all have mobile phones and also he wants to start playing out a bit which means we need him to have a mobile phone.

So we have given in and Joshua now has Tina's old mobile phone on a £10 a month contract which gets him 5GB data, unlimited texts and 500 mins of calls. It's a bit trial an error at the moment and we hope he uses it responsibly and are trusting him. He already seems to make lots of calls to his friends and uses it for WhatsApp and Instagram etc. He has even spent his pocket money and bought a "Fortnite" phone cover.

We have told Brandon he can wait a year until he is Joshua's age before getting his own phone.
