[quote=Anonymous]I started my children with a non-data phone on a pay-as-you-go service. If they broke the rules, they lost the phone. I didn't want to be locked into a plan or have paid for an expensive phone if that happened, because I didn't want that to be part of the issue. After a year of the non-data phone with no major broken rules, they get a data phone on a pay-as-you-go plan. I keep the non-data phones because if they break the rules with their data phones, they still need phones for emergencies. Have only needed the backup for one of my kids. I intend to keep the pay-as-you-go plans. I think it helps the kids to know I am not trapped in a plan, that I could turn off their phone immediately with no penalty.[/quote]
