You are in trouble if she get millions of USA dollars "credit" or/and loan on collateral. Example buy pony on collateral loan, without your permission.

I think it’s important to be able to get in touch with your daughter when she’s out, to confirm she’s safe and make sure she’s able to reach out for help if she needs it.
However, smart phones may have many different negative consequences for young people and I wouldn’t want to encourage her to adopt a social media habit that could potentially have a negative affect on her sense of self.
You could potentially buy her a cell phone but something very simple that doesn’t have apps or you could buy her a smart phone but limit her usage to make sure she’s not compulsively using social media.

If it's okay by you for her to get phone it's cool , nothing wrong to have a phone @16. The world is changing and technology everywhere

Buy her one, she could need one in an emergency one time. I had my first phone when I was about 13 & that was 20 years ago. Buy her one dude.
they can be lured into somewhere that we don't want them to go.

I think at the age of 16, you should give her a smartphone, but you have to control her online activities so that her don't abuse that phone...btw I have a child who is 8 years old but I have to buy a smartphone because my country still enforces 'study from home'
So it is normal to see that teenagers 16 years old need a smartphone because smartphone now becomes a need for their life.

I wouldn't get her a smartphone that is not well controlled and suitable for her. We will likely discuss the right things that should be allowed on her phone and whether she will be willing to let us see what she uses/have. We could have good approved apps our family can used together.
It should be possible for all trustworthy members of my family to have some sort of shared Mobile Interface with the right rules, for mobile phone or pc where all the Internet/Online/Mobile activities of the family members are collected and can be seen by every family members, so we don't have those who don't have control over their evil desires from being misled. The kids can become independent once they reach certain age and have self control.

I think it's absolutely normal at 16 to have a personal phone, personal boundaries hi
I think it's high time, a girl needs her own space, her own friends, constant contact with her parents

This is 2021 and 3-year-old kids start having their own Ipads. 
16 and still asking you for permission to have her own phone, must be living in a stone age.
That's fine.
Give her the phone and let her discover things through her phone, I mean of discovering, it's going to be handy for her to search for her projects and other school stuff.
I'm even given a phone I think when I was 11 years old.

I mean I'm open for other opinions for kids at the age of 13 or younger to have an own phone - but 16? At this time I already was a master in SNAKE
The childs from my sister got their phone when most other kids in their school had one. It's just cause in these ages it's quite important that kids don't feel "less" than other kids.
The "system" is not cool cause the average age of getting a own phone is getting lower, but come on, let's be serious - you need it in your adult life daily so lerning these things early as possible + the benefits for the parents that the child has a phone (safety aspects).
So it's more about how u handle it instead - if playing with it is like TV time or game time, it's totally fine to let them have one.
The childs of my sister are not allowed to play all the time on their phone, but they have one.
....And they are 10 years old.
So tbh your daughter is 16. She's not a child anymore and if you don't allow her a phone (which is for every young woman a very important thing, I mean we all know they love to call and use Insta and so on.) it would be wrong.

I think she deserves to have her own phone to communicate with family or friends. I will buy her a new phone but I will always remind her not to use her phone most of her time because that can make her addicted to the phone and she might not do the other things. As long as she can have a responsibility to her life, that will not be a problem but we still need to keep an eye on it.

depend on how you know her mate , because as parents we are the one who can assess if what they deserve to have even if they are in right age or not.and also your CAPACITY TO MONITOR THEIR ACTIVITIES because this is the most important part in front of gadgets .
i let my Son have a mobile but confiscating this if he had some mistakes in our agreements .
