    Id get the 15 yr old a phone

    I would give the fifteen year old a phone, but not a really fancy one unless she's sue for an upgrade. I would not be spoiling my 6 year old daughter with a laptop computer.

    a 6 year old does not need a lap top but a 15 year old needs a phone.

    I'm a spoiler. LOL You only live once. My son was learning the computer in kindergarten so we got him a desk top and he turned into a puter brainiac..He started his own business at age 14, fixing and building and teaching.

    I answered both but there is a stipulation. I would want my daughter to be able to call me if she needed help but her phone would be the very basic phone without texting or internet capability. I would get my 6 year old a laptop but she would only have access when my wife or myself were with her and their would be securities to block out adult sights

    6 yr old isn't responsible enough for a laptop and a 15 year old that can't take care of their phone isn't responsible enough for me to buy her another one to mess up.

    A 15 year old can now learn responsibility and save up for her own phone. I bet they'd take better care of it knowing they'd have to pay for the next. And a 6 year old doesn't need a lap top. For anything. Ever.

    It depends if they actually deserve it, and if I actually had the money for it.

    It depends. How did the 15 yr olds phone break. If she was being careless with it then no I wouldn't replace it. But if it was but accident and knowing that she is normally responsible with her things then yes I would. The 6 yr old. I would find a good inexpensive refurbished one and put a parental software on it. One that limits websites and has a timer that automatically shuts the computer off when U want it too.

    Pay for it yourself, hun. Not to be mean.. but parents just aren't made of money. How cliche is that haha >.< Besides, it'll be so much better knowing you worked for it. Trust me.

    I would help them work for it. I might give the six year old a used laptop there are plenty in good shape that you can pick up cheap, but I would still have her do some simple chores to earn it and the 15 year old should be doing something to earn the phone. I love my kids but when they got something out of the ordinary that we could not afford they worked for it.

    I'm a father with 4 daughters, not 2. Plus 3 sons. All of those amenities have to be paid for...by ME!!!!! And thus, my kids have to earn them.

    The 15 year old can earn her own phone with allowance money or babysitting money. The 6 year old does not need a lap top. My own daughter is 7 and has no use for a laptop. She can use our computer to play educational games.

    Laptops are way to expensive for a 6 year old to have, unless you have lots of money. Even then, they should do some house chores to start learning the value of $$$.

    Well maybe the 15 year old depending on how mature she is. But why does a 6 year old need a laptop unless they are home schooled?

    Lol...I had to laugh at the comment below "A 15yr. old IS a phone"! If they are good kids I'd encourage both. But for a 6 yr. old a very in-expensive laptop or hand me down. And in my opinion NO internet w/o an adult sitting with them!

    But not one of those fancy ones, just a simple one. I'd want to be able to reach my kids. 6-year-olds don't need a laptop, that's just nonsense.

    Speak to your mom in a loving and caring way about your phone needs. Offer to do house chores to earn the money. Please be more careful with your next phone.

    I wouldn't get the 6 year old an expensive laptop, and there would be rules.
