We're about to purchase a first phone for our 11 yr old son; currently looking at the Samsung Admire from Metro PCS running Android 2.3
Both my wife and I have corp phones, thus reason looking at Metro PCS; she has an i-phone and I have an Evo 4G via Sprint.
Overall he's a great kid and was also just moved into the Gifted & Talented program @ school - figured we'd reward him w/ a phone a few months ahead of his b-day.
- What's the general consensus around here from others with 11-12 yr old kids and having a phone w/ a data plan and internet access?
- After a brief glance on my Evo I did not see anywhere to set parental controls to limit internet access / content.
Am I missing a standard option with Android to set parental controls or is there a recommended App available?
Thanks,
Steve
