It seems reasonable to you that you need to be 13 or older to use email? To talk to his grandparents?

- zwieback 15y agoNot to use email but to be allowed to sign up for a general purpose email account like GMail without any kind of parental consent.
- yuvadam 15y agoContinuing that line of logic - Should < 13 year olds not be allowed to use 'general purpose' means of communication such as telephones or, god forbid, snail mail?
- georgefox 15y agoPersonally, I don't think they should be able to create an account with Vonage or Verizon or whoever and sign up for telephone service, no. I have no problem with them using their parents' account(s), though.
- zwieback 15y agoI think the interesting aspect isn't so much whether they should be allowed to use these services but what kind of contract they should be allowed to enter with providers independently of their parents or guardians.
