And you're complaining? Wait until she's a teenager.

That's who I'm talking about is my teenage daughter. My two year old is too busy to even think about being on the phone (and I'm praying she stays that way)!

However, she does text the heck out of people and kills her cell phone battery about every 2-3 days.

Consider yourself blessed, then.

Kids are in school and they use them. My buddy is a 7th grade teacher and he had to confiscate a few of them this year because of text messaging. Its nuts!

If I was a principal, I would not allow cell phones in the school.
Unnecessary.

My oldest who just turned 21 uses her phone for everything. She texts on avg over 1500 a month. When ever I let her drive the truck with me in it, she is not allowed to touch her phone. I told her one of this days she is going to be texting while driving and me and mom will be going down to identify the body. My daughter had her so called friend on the family plan with us and one month she texted over 2400 msgs. The following month she texted over 4600, it was unreal, her so called friend did not pay her bill so the daughter shut her off after she got some of the money.

I have seen kids as young as 8 with cell phones. But like anything, parents need to monitor them.

I like the law in Germany were a person who wants to use his cell phone has to pull over, turn off the car take the keys out of the ignition then use it. If they get caught using there phone while driving they get a major fine. That is something we need here in the states.

Feel thankful you don't go to school with some of today's teenage girls. Some of the one's I have classes with can get on my nerves. Most of them though I can get along with pretty well

There is one thing that Jr. High School has taught me in addition to all the other wonderful things.

Some women, can be COMPLICATED

The older you get the worse it is, trust me man. With the situation I am in I thought it ended at high school haha. No offense to the lovely ladies of this forum of course.

I actually dropped my land line in my apt because i never used it. i always use my cell, so it got to be a waste of money for me so all I use is my cell. and I do tend to use text messages a lot, especially at work with friends and when i am dating a girl. Its easier in a lot of ways as long as you are on the right plan.

That's supposedly the rules here but I know kids still text while in school.

My school district allows them to be brought into the school buidling, but bans the use of them during class.
