Why would it be the phone co's business?
Quote From: mstmbondWouldn't it be nice if you could get the cell phone company's to work with you. They won't. With all the technology out there, the cell phone company's refuse to help a parent. WHY? Because they won't make as much money. Sad, isn't it.
I do agree that the cell phone should be taken away. The 12 year old should have the cell phone placed where the sun doesn't shine and photograph that to send to her friends. Come on, what are these kids thinking... The worst thing about it is, she can take digital pictures and do the same thing.
I'm not sure how to make these kids realize the behavior they are participating in is unhealthy. What do the boys think of her after she does this. I'm sure they egg her on because I know adult men who do the same thing.
As for the Silvia drug... The mother who LET'S her son do it has got to be kidding. And we wonder why there is so much dysfunction in the world. The other shocking thing is... She is a freaking school teacher. How would you like to have THAT as your child's teacher.
I may sound like a "no fun" type of person but we have lowered the standers in this country to a all time low. God, help us all. If you take out that little book that comes with your phone, it will tell you exactly how to set the passwords on the phone yourself. Also, the phone company needed the adults permission to put picture mail on the contract in the first place. Obviously the adults are the ones who are agreeing to this, not the phone company. All it takes is one simple phone call or a trip to your local retailer to have your contract changed where the picture mail and even texting can be shut off. Do you have any idea what the cost of this winds up to be on the phone bill at the end of the month? I had picture mail and text for about 2 months until I got a good look at the bill. $5.00 for each individual item gets very pricey indeed, and that's not counting the added charges for every time they are used. So lay off of the phone companies, if you have it on your own phone you have only yourself to blame.
