 Text messaging while driving has become way to common. i work for a well known cell phone company so i see how many text messages people send a month. Mostly teens. and that girl that was on the show said she usually has around 5,000 a month. Thats nothing compaired to how many text messages i see teens send. The most ive seen is 20,000 that a teen was sending. but i usually see anywhere from 7,000 to 15,000. The mother needs to take the phone and have the text messages blocked. She can do that. and if she doesnt want to go that far the cell phone that was on TV was a Verizon cell phone and i know you can go online and check the time that she sends the text messages and recieves the text messages and she can also see the numbers that she is sending and recieving to. So if the mother really wanted her to stop all she has to do is call the cell phone carrier up and have the text messages blocked. I will admitt i have sent text messages while i was driving and looked at the also but after those 5 girls were killed i have stopped. I have a brother that was looking to buy a new car and i found one that he might like and when i told him it was a stick he said no he cant drive a stick because it wouldnt be able to text and drive. I flipped out. Hes 26 years old and texts around 10,000 a month. I have begged him to stop but hes addicted. I see how many kids really do in a month and when parents buy there kids these phones they really dont know what all the kids can really do from there phones and what all is avaliable on these phones and how much money all of it costs. Ive seen parents bills in the $1000s from texting, ringtones, games, and going over mins. If you dont have a text package on your line, you can still send and recieve text messages and the company i work for charges you $.15 send and recieved and $.25 for each picture sent and recieved. So a warning to all parents, Check your cell phone bill. You can do it all online now. you dont have to leave your house. And if you dont want them texting BLOCK IT!!!   Every carrier has that option.

Dr. Phil,

 

    I think it is plain that Abdullah, his father and family were involved in beating a U.S. Citizen...  My question is why does our Government knowing this would ever allow Abdullah and/or his father back into this Country.  They should now be put on the list and never be allowed back into the United States again.
