so 9 year olds have mobile phones, really? none of my daughters friends have mobiles at that age...and no my daughter does not have an email or (afaiaw, would have to check with my wife) does no social networking whatsoever...when the time comes to give my daughter a mobile I will of course show her how to use it etc

btw we live in a very rural area

imo a 9 year is not going to see this image and think the same way that a grown up does, a 9 year old is not going to immediately think of sex and porn because it is just not in her brain at this moment in time, I personally think these kinds of costumes on the show you refer to before 9 is wrong, I am no prude btw I am as red blooded a male as the next man!!
I feel like I'm only directing my comments at you, but you raise some important aspects of the debate.

No she will not view the image the same as an adult does, but when she wants to wear that to a halloween party, will you let her?

I would have thought that a mobile would be a very useful tool in a rural location, my girls were off out at the skate park and cycling down the woods by then, we always had an agreed route, but being able to give them a call because my plans had changed would have been useful.

If I was into major tinfoil-hattery, I'd say the liberals are deliberately trying to sexualise children and schoolkids, to keep the teen pregnancy rate high, to create lots of benefit dependant single mothers to generate a steady stream of labour voters. however, even I'm not that far-fetched in my thinking
