[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the cost of a standard phone, it might be cheaper to add a line to our plan and get a cheap flip phone. Nothing fancy so the kids won't be tempted to play games on it or surf the internet. Just have it plugged in all the time, so you don't have to worry about the battery draining. Its there in case of an emergency and, if heaven forbid they need to leave the house because the smoke dectators go off, they can take it with them and call you from outside. Make sure you program your number, spouse, or any other emergency contact they may need to reach. [/quote] This is a great idea. My kindergartner has learned to dial 911 in emergency, but now we’re working on how to actually do that on our cell phones, which are different. She is never home alone, but if the adult she is with is incapacitated (I worry irrationally about falling down the stairs) she may have a hard time remembering what to do. [/quote]
