CHEAP calls provider, Firstnumber, advises parents to keep their mobiles to themselves.
“There are few things as tempting to young children as phones, especially of the mobile variety. There’s something about the shape, size and the air of the forbidden that makes them magnets for small hands.
“Smartphones have only increased the appeal, and many parents are happy to hand over their gadgets for the sake of a few peaceful minutes. However, these phones aren’t made for children.”
A spokesperson added: “Anyone who is tempted to treat their phone like a toy should think back to this situation. While phones are becoming ever more sophisticated, and adding an ever growing number of bells and whistles, it’s a good idea to remember that the information you share over them can have a serious and long-lasting effect.”
