[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 573397, member: 6546"] ksm-- If you're familiar with my story, you know that we have had HUGE problems with inappropriate messaging on fb and other sites. in my humble opinion, the problem with the phone (especially those with unlimited web) will be the ability to connect with anyone, any time....and make all kinds of dangerous arrangements right under your nose. At the moment - our cell phone rules are as follows: NO "unlimited web" plans. Yes, it is more expensive to pay for a certain amount of minutes each month....BUT it cuts back on the possibility of endless web chats with strangers. No cell phone in the bedroom. Phone stays in a public area of the house. You want to use the phone? You can do it where I can see you. (No sexting in MY house....thank you very much!) Cell phone is turned in to parents at any time, on demand. We catch you using the phone for inappropriate things....you lose it indefinitely. That's what we do. Hope this helps! Good luck! [/QUOTE]
