A 13 year old not having a cell phone isn't exteme at all these days. You not having one until you're 18 is extreme though. Also, whether texting during school is ok or not, you can't just walk out of class and go talk to the person. I would make lunch plans in high school via text and things like that. Not a big deal.

Text messages are ridiculous, I hate it when people text in class, especially because they are usually talking to people in the same class or at least in the same building; just go talk to the person, honestly. Its really just a popularity statement at that age. A 13 year old doesn't need to be texting her friends, they need to be talking to them. Again, this is in my honest opinion. If they are in a lot of extracurriculars and need a phone to call for rides, etc, then a basic plan w/ no texting is good. If you still want to buy into it, just add another Verizon line and pay 5 bucks a month for 500 messages. |
