- ABC News The American Academy of Pediatrics says that children under the age of 12 should not have access to smartphones, tablets or other handheld devices. Parents should make sure that the devices they allow their children to use are age appropriate and used in moderation. It is important to monitor the usage of these devices to ensure that children are not using them excessively or using them for inappropriate purposes. Parents should also be aware of the potential risks of online predators and cyber-bullying that come with having a child online.
