The first part in principal is true only to the extent that if my 8 year old is at school then he/she/ is expected to be there and i make sure that they are accounted for every minute so a cell phone is not required. That arrangement carries over into every aspect of that 8 year olds life.

As to the second part, my 8 year olds who are grown now will tell you that you only got to pull that not being where your suppose to be once or twice and that would be the last time you did it. I DON"T PLAY regarding that issue.

Now to the last part i agree. That's exactly why an 8 year old will always be supervised by a parent who is in constant communication with ME the parent. So again that 8 year old would not need to have a cell phone.
