Do you add your kids cell phone to your plan or do you get them a pay as you go phone without a contract?
Whatever plan you choose to go with just make sure unlimited texting is involved. I have seen too many people get a huge shock when their bill comes and the kid went over their texting limit. It just makes more sense to me to get unlimited right from the get go and save yourself the heart attack later.
Not looking forward to this because it will cost us about an extra $150 or whatever. Why? Because to put the kids on our plan, we would have to have a plan ourselves.
My oldest is already bothering us about a cell phone. She is 10 and listing to us all the kids who have cell phones. We certainly could use a cell phone since we work different shifts and hardly ever see each other, plus I don't like Wifey driving home at midnight without a phone, but just can't reason the cost of cell phones. So, daughter isn't getting a phone either because she has no way to pay the monthly fee herself.
Totally agree. My friend's daughter texts added $500 in one month He learned the value of unlimited texting (so did she he made her pay half )
I am a little concerned if he loses the phone my credit info and account being compromised. Anyone else worry about this???
