[quote=Anonymous]We have a family plan with AT & T-4 lines $160. Your daughter sounds very responsible. Our kids use their phones as ipods as well. So we don't have to buy that as well. We have discussed many times appropriate use of the phone, texts, etc. Our kids understand that if is borken, they will not have their phones. For teens today, the phone is the way they communicate. No one calls a house phone to talk to a kid. They send texts, snap chats, message in facebook. It is not just the "fast" kids. Monitor the use and if she uses it inappropriatelythen take it away. Giving teens some independance along the way gives them the chance to learn how to deal with it.[/quote]
