[quote=Anonymous]We don't have a landline, but we've taught DS how to call 911 using the emergency function on a locked phone and we have an old phone always plugged in, and the iPad. Periodically I have him practice how to get to the emergency screen, and how to locate the emergency contact list in a phone. We have our address posted on the refrigerator in case he needs to tell 911 (when I was about 10 I had to call 911 from my house and I panicked and blanked on our address), and he knows if he's at someone else's house to look for a piece of mail. We started teaching him around 3, but we had a landline then. We went no landline when he was 7 I think, and he had no trouble with the cellphone. [/quote]
