[QUOTE="Marcie Mac, post: 537377, member: 47"] Terry, I would get him a Trac Phone with prepaid minutes on it - or get him one of those "Senior" phones that have no texting-its just a phone. Only recently did I put Danny back on my Verizon account - he pays in advance and knows I will shut him down and he needs that phone for work and has been very good about paying for it. I thought what a deal thru Verizon for 10.00 per month, but by the time you are done with fees, internet access, not to mention if you go over in minutes, or dial 411, get a ring tone or two, pay for insurance on the phone, texting, extra minutes, we are looking at 65 to 75 per month for his line. Kids today are way too savvy and can figure out ways to bypass controls, I don't care what company it is. He has lost his phone three times already this year and he is lucky that last week someone found it and called me (When I heard are you Danny's mom - thought I was going to have a heart attack) or else he would have been up the creek - there is a limit on the amount of phones they will replace. I have gotten a little smarter as when he didn't have a phone, he used mine. He doesn't do that anymore because I have a pink rinestone case that is glued on LOL I am out of my element when it comes to having my phone do "stuff" -I was sitting here one day on the computer typing and my screen kept changing - turns out Jamie was behind me and was operating my computer from his phone-he can work the TV from his phone as well, and Danny has set up his Direct TV on HIS phone so he can watch sports. And me, I can barely answer mine - I have to unlock it and by the time I am done fiddling with it to get to the phone part, the person has hung up. Marcie [/QUOTE]
