[QUOTE="Andy, post: 316762, member: 5096"] :rofl: OMG - The cell phone I totally get from my 13 yr old but a baby brother? Too funny! (My difficult child would ask for cell phone or puppy) We are considering some type of track phone (only spend what is put on it so if it gets lost - or stolen - the finder can't get too much out of it) and put a very minimum amount on it. In January, I may let him attend the 7th/8th grade party. He would have no way of contacting us if he needs to be picked up early. We are finding that 7th grade is bringing some of these issues. I have no idea how my parents survived us not having a way of communicating when out and about. If we did get a track phone for difficult child's use, it would not be something he could carry 24/7. He would only carry it for certain events. When he started riding bike to a nearby convience store, I borrowed him my cell phone with instructions to call when he arrived at the busy highway and then again when he got across safely. [/QUOTE]
