What happened to the good old days of going through your kid's phone and seeing who they called? haha

I agree. I think this is a good IDEA, but the REALITY is that parents need to control their kids. Even people withouth kids need to take responsibility for their own lives, and not rely on other people to keep them in check.

Or the day before kids had phones. Granted, I am only 19, and got my first cell phone at 14, but I work at a kids party place "Pump it Up" and I have seen 7-8 year old kids get cell phones. I just would like to see the providers not charge for these services, they should be expected and included services with any family plan.

or maybe, just maybe, people should be responsible for their own lives instead of relying/requesting/demanding/expecting others to do it for them.

just a thought. then again, what would I know? it's not like I live on my own, own my car, work full time, pay all my bills on time, monitor my cell usage, clean up after myself.... oh, hell. the list goes on and on. My parents stopped doing that for me YEARS ago.
